Welcome to the MongoDB guide for Pythagora users! Pythagora excels with the MERN stack, where MongoDB plays a crucial role as the database layer. This page will provide you with a basic understanding of your MongoDB options to help you get started quickly and efficiently.

Choose between local and cloud-based MongoDB based on your specific needs:

• Local MongoDB is better for development environments or when strict data control is essential.
• MongoDB Atlas is ideal for easy maintenance and better scalability in production environments.
