User Authentication with Server-Side Rendering (SSR)

Welcome to the User Authentication with Server-Side Rendering (SSR) repository! This project aims to provide a secure and seamless authentication system for web applications, utilizing server-side rendering for enhanced performance and user experience.

Features

• Secure Authentication: Implement robust authentication mechanisms to ensure user data security and prevent unauthorized access.
• Server-Side Rendering (SSR): Utilize SSR to render pages on the server before sending them to the client, enhancing performance and SEO.
• User Profile Management: Allow users to create accounts, log in securely, and manage their profiles.
• Session Management: Implement session management to maintain user sessions and provide a seamless browsing experience.
• Password Hashing: Securely hash user passwords using bcrypt to protect sensitive information.
• Middleware-based Authentication: Use middleware functions to authenticate user requests and restrict access to protected routes.

Technologies Used

• Node.js: Backend JavaScript runtime environment.
• Express.js: Web application framework for Node.js.
• MongoDB: NoSQL database for storing user data.
• Mongoose: MongoDB object modeling for Node.js.
• JWT (JSON Web Tokens): Secure method for transmitting information between parties as JSON objects.
• bcrypt: Library for hashing passwords.
• Handlebars (hbs): Templating engine for rendering dynamic HTML content.
• dotenv: Environment variable management.
• cookie-parser: Middleware for parsing cookies in Express.
• nodemon: Utility for auto-restarting the server during development.
