Create a application.properties file, and set up the necessary dependencies. You will need this to connect to your Postgres Server. Make sure to include a Secret token such as
jwt.secret=c2206ffb-01cf-4a2f-8bf-d4bb3043847b
This backend consists of several endpoints which the frontend api as seen here https://github.com/052223-java-angular/Soudry-P1-Frontend/tree/continuous-deployment can make HTTP Get and Post requests to login, register, as well as pull monster data and item data. Users must first login to receive a jwt token, which is required to be valid to access site data.
