# vue-express-mongo-boilerplate #
[](https://snyk.io/test/github/icebob/vue-express-mongo-boilerplate)
**This project is under heavy development!!!**
This is a VueJS webapp boilerplate project with ExpressJS + Mongo server. Not an out-of-box webapp.
Inspired by [dstroot/skeleton](https://github.com/dstroot/skeleton) and [sahat/hackathon-starter](https://github.com/sahat/hackathon-starter)
*This is just my personal boilerplate, it may or may not be a good fit for your project(s).*
