Auth-API

A authentication system made with NodeJS. It's a service where you can register your user, then use the credentials to login .

What I used in this project

• NodeJS
• MongoDB
• bcrypt
• Express
• bodyParser
• Mongoose
• dotEnv

What I learned doing this project

• Express - I improved my knowledge with express routes and with receiving specific data from users.

• Mongoose - I've learned how to store specific data in the MongoDB database, such as HASH encrypted passwords

• JavaScript - Improved my development speed as I learned many new things and practiced the syntax

• bcrypt - I've learned how to encrypt data, especially passwords, how to decrypt them and how to compare encrypted and non-encrypted data, all that with the hash system.

• dotEnv - I've learned how to hide important data from the user, improving the safety of the program itself.

Conclusion

• While doing this project I have learned inumerous new technologies, such as encrypting data and the auth system itself, wich will help me with future projects and my career , in general.
