Express React Login App

This is a simple React + Express app. Express serves react and supplies an API for registering and logging in users.

It authenticates the user but does not set a token or any method of verifying the users identity after initial login.

Installing

git clone 'this-repo-url' app-name
cd app-name
yarn install

Running The App

Dev Mode

yarn serve:dev

Production mode

npm serve:prod

Now visit the Express app at 'http://localhost:3001'

TODO

  • Hand the user back an actuall token
  • Validate token on future API requests
  • Test components beyond lazy shallow rendering
  • Fix log out routing behavior to avoide use of context.router
