Sarhni Clone - MEAN Full-Stack Project

Project Description

Sarhni Clone is a full-stack web application that allows users to receive anonymous messages from others without knowing the sender's identity. Users can create an account using their email, verify their email through a confirmation link, and then sign in to read and manage the received messages. Additionally, users can generate a sharable link to receive messages from friends without revealing their identity.
