mean stack - Which production code base to use -

i've spent past several months building small search app based on mean stack. in course of development, found several flavors of stack, meant seems production deploys , large teams (meanjs.org , mean.io) , seems simplistic possible started (megaboilerplate, , degree hackathon-starter- have add "a").

i'm done development , want deploy app have bit of dilema. i've never deployed app before , guidance. deploy on large more complex stack meanjs or keep simple , deploy on megaboilerplate or hackathon? seems meanjs , hackathon more complete, taking security account. megaboilerplate nice , simple, may lack security features.

meanjs seems more complete (while bit dated), hackathon-starter similar meanjs, more updated. megaboilerplate simple, leads me believe may missing vital security features.

anyone have experience deploying either stack?

note: know mentioned mean.io, however, never integrated search app - worth try?
