(Under the Hood)
Built using Model-View-Controller design architecture, this application makes use of the following technologies:
- Uses bcrypt npm package to hash passwords and enable authenticated sessions to protect user credentials.
- Uses Express.js to engineer controllers to manage communication between front and back end.
- Uses Sequelize Object-Relational-Mapping package through Node.js to model database objects transported by Express.
- Uses Handlebars.js through NPM to render views with dynamic data.
