ToDo API

This is a ToDo application API built using NestJS, and MongoDB. The application serves endpoints for managing tasks, users, and authentication. For protecting the endpoints, authentication is done with the help of short-living access-token, and long-living refresh-token. It also provides Swagger documentation for the API.
