Advanced MERN Stack Authentication

Welcome to this journey that dives deep into MERN Stack Authentication, an essential component in building secure web applications. This course dives headfirst into the real-world processes of authentication and authorization, giving you the tools needed to verify user identities and decide what they have access to.

Throughout this course, the main focus is on MERN Stack Authentication and Authorization. You'll have the enriching experience of building frontend pages using React and SCSS. We take a leap further by setting up routing with React Router V6 and building API endpoints with Express. A primary emphasis of this course will be User Management including features like User Registration, Login, assigning User Roles, Google OAuth Login, User Profile Management, and Changing Passwords.

We'll also guide you through the intricate details of Password Reset via Email and sending automated emails. The course simplifies the concepts of working with JSON Web Tokens (JWT) and cookies to secure your applications. With these tools, we'll protect routes to be accessible only by logged-in users.

By the end of the course, you will know how to handle errors, understand auth middleware, and update user profiles. We'll wrap up by walking you through deploying your backend to Render and your frontend to Vercel while also showing you how to manage your projects on Github.

This course is designed for developers who have basic familiarity with React and the MERN Stack. Though this is not an introductory course to React or MERN Stack, every concept used during the sessions will be explained.
