MERN Stack Ultimate Tutorial - Forgot Password, User Authentication & Email Verification
GitHub repo 👇
https://github.com/bwestwood11/mern-authentication-tutorial
In this video, I go over step-by-step on how to create a full user authentication system using the MERN Stack. This stack consists of MongoDB for the database, Express as the backend framework, React and Node.js.
We use packages like jsonwebtoken, bcrypt, nodemon, zustand for state management, cookie parser, mongoose and much more.
You will be able to code an authentication system that allows a user to register an account and receive a verification email through Resend. The user will be able to verify their email and login to their account with a JWT token as the authentication method.
The user will be able to request a password reset, see their user information on the dashboard and logout as well.
After watching this video, you will be able to fully comprehend how an authentication system is built using the MERN stack.
