Stack technology

Stack technology refers to a collection of software layered together to build, run, and manage applications. Each layer handles a specific role—for example, the operating system, programming languages, frameworks, and databases—all working in harmony. Think of it like a multi-layered cake, where each slice adds flavor and supports the next. Developers choose a stack based on their project needs, enabling efficient development, deployment, and maintenance. Popular stacks include LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP) or MEAN (MongoDB, Express.js, Angular, Node.js), illustrating how diverse components integrate to create a complete application environment.
