Nodejs-REST-API-Concepts-DB-Json

Built a secure NodeJs REST API uses best API practice. Implemented JWT "AccessToken, refreshToken" and "Roles and permissions". The data are stored in JSON file.

Description

This REST API allows you to create, read, update and delete employees and users data. The employees file is located in the ./model/employees.json file and the users file is located in the ./model/users.json file. The employees json won't be updated. That is I designed it. However, the users json file will be updated. You can add, edit and delete users.
