Concept for JWT

for more info look this web https://jwt.io/

no Database been integreted in this project it work on simply backend

http is stateless it means that server does not remember any previous request sent by the same client frontend always need to provide the TOKEN to access the data

MEANS :: user always need to give the token to access their data cause server never remember how many time user have given token

when ever you use the JWT SECRET in production use long, complex and unguessable string value

2. learned how to send the token through the headers

3. Error handling gets extended and it is done by the package name 'http-status-codes'

const CustomAPIError = require('./custom-error')
const { StatusCodes } = require('http-status-codes')  // This one

class BadRequest extends CustomAPIError {
    constructor(message) {
      super(message)
      this.statusCode = StatusCodes.BAD_REQUEST  // This one 
    }
  }
  
  module.exports = BadRequest
