This backend API server provides a robust and secure foundation for your application by implementing role-based authentication using JSON Web Tokens (JWT).
- Role-Based Authorization: Enforces access control based on user roles, ensuring that only authorized users can access specific resources.
- JWT Authentication: Utilizes JWT tokens for stateless authentication, offering flexibility and scalability for your API.
- Secure Configuration: Leverages environment variables (.env) to manage sensitive data securely.
- Mongoose Integration: Integrates with MongoDB for efficient and scalable data persistence (optional, based on your project's requirements).
- TypeScript Support: Enhances code maintainability and type safety, especially for larger projects.
