Authentication Service

This service is implemented as a REST-API for users authentication. It depends on JWT for managing the authentication.

Features:

• Email verfication: I used Nodemailer and JWT to implement this feature. Upon signing up users get an email with a verfication link. The verification link contains a token as a parameter. The endpoint verifiy the token and activate the account.

I learnt about testing too while implementing this service. I’ve used Jest for the testing part. I’ve written the API specfication using Postman.

Features that will be introduced soon:

• Roles
• Password reset
• Caching recent active users with Redis to enhance performance.
• Dashboard for Admins.
