[Full Demo] [Front-end Github Source]
Simple server API built with GraphQL, Express, and Mongoose which serves as the middleman between the front end application (made in Gatsby) and the MongoDB instance hosted on Atlas. The purpose of this project was to gain a better understanding about what a GraphQL is capable of and how authentication and JSON Web Tokens should be handled. In this project, some realistic scenarios are covered, such as making certain endpoints private to certain users that are not authenticated.
