MEAN vs Sane Stack: What are the differences?

What is MEAN? A Simple, Scalable and Easy starting point for full stack javascript web development. MEAN (Mongo, Express, Angular, Node) is a boilerplate that provides a nice starting point for MongoDB, Node.js, Express, and AngularJS based applications. It is designed to give you a quick and organized way to start developing MEAN based web apps with useful modules like Mongoose and Passport pre-bundled and configured.

What is Sane Stack? Ember on Sails. A full web development stack written in Javascript, integrating Ember.js, Sails.js and Docker.

MEAN and Sane Stack can be primarily classified as "Frameworks (Full Stack)" tools.

MEAN and Sane Stack are both open source tools. It seems that MEAN with 11.8K GitHub stars and 3.57K forks on GitHub has more adoption than Sane Stack with 479 GitHub stars and 53 GitHub forks.
