My first Nodejs project, its a user system with some features.
• Features:
- Signing up a new account, it does tell you how strong your password is and if the username is already taken or not.
- Logging to an existing account, will store an auth token in both database and browser (HttpOnly secure cookie in your browser).
- The ability to upload an avatar to the database, the ability to remove it too (avatars are stored as binary data).
- The ability to change the password for your existing account.
- Logging out from your account, it will remove the recently used token from the database too.
- All data are stored in a MongoDB database.
