This repository provides a Node.js template that implements user authentication and management using Express.js and PostgrSQL. It's designed to be a starting point for developers building web applications that require user-related functionalities like registration, login, and management.
The purpose of the express-postgres-prisma-auth-and-user-management project is to provide a foundational template for developers looking to implement user authentication and management features in their web applications. Specifically, it aims to:
- Simplify User Authentication: Offer a straightforward way to manage user registration, login, and logout processes.
- Enhance Security: Implement secure practices such as password hashing and JWT (JSON Web Tokens) for authentication, ensuring user data is protected 🔒.
- Enable User Management: Provide CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) functionalities for managing user accounts, allowing applications to handle user data easily.
- Serve as a Starter Template: Act as a boilerplate for developers, saving time and effort in setting up user authentication systems from scratch.
Overall, this project is geared towards helping developers quickly integrate robust user management features into their applications using Express.js and PostgrSQL.
- User Registration: Secure user account creation.
- Login/Logout: Seamless authentication and session handling.
- Password Hashing: Keeps user passwords safe and encrypted 🔒.
- JWT Authentication: Uses JSON Web Tokens for secure access and sessions 🔑.
- CRUD Operations: Full Create, Read, Update, Delete functionalities for managing users ✍️.
- Node.js: Server-side JavaScript runtime.
- Express.js: Web framework for building APIs.
- PostgrSQL: NoSQL database for fast and scalable data storage.
- Prisma: Modern ORM for database access and management.
- JWT (JSON Web Tokens): Secure token-based authentication.
