Database configuration

To use the app, you will have to configure a few things in MongoDB.

  1. Create a new MongoDB Atlas cluster - M0 (free tier) will suffice. Create a new database and collection for your recipes.
  2. In Atlas App Services, create a new app and link it to your database.
  3. Select your app and in Data Access/Authentication menu choose Email/Password.
  4. Add a new app user.

You will input these credentials in your app the first time you log in. This allows for all instances of the app to have up-to-date information and to securely access your database.
