How to Install MongoDB
[MongoDB](https://www.mongodb.com/) is a free and open-source NoSQL document database common in modern web applications. Unlike relational databases, MongoDB does not require a predefined schema before you add data to a database—you can alter the schema at any time without having to setup a new database with an updated schema. This tutorial guides you through installing MongoDB Community Edition on your server. Choose your OS below to get started.
