I have been learning about CRUD operations and how to use them in my projects. CRUD stands for Create, Read, Update, and Delete. I have used these operations to manage data in my applications for the past three months in React and only last month in JavaScript using Express. I get to continue to utilize CRUD in my project next week. I have a decent grasp of coding CRUD in JavaScript and using it with my MongoDB database collections. CRUD operations allow you to create new records, read existing records, update records, and delete records. These operations are typically performed using a database management system (DBMS) or an API.
We depend on CRUD operations in our daily lives. For example, when you create a new account on a website, you use the Create operation. When you log in to your account, you use the Read operation. When you update your profile information, you use the Update operation. And when you delete your account, you use the Delete operation. CRUD operations are everywhere in our digital lives and are essential for managing data effectively.
