BREIF_INTRODUCTION:

This repository has the server code of my Cross-Platform End-to-End Messenger Application. More precisely, this is the backend of the login/register system that I have implemented, and it also enables end-to-end chat facility between users through the use of web sockets.

KEY_FEATURES of Register/Login/Logout facility:

  1. Authorization system uses jsonwebtoken.
  2. Session management with the limit of 2 sessions per user at a time.
  3. Otp based email verification using nodemailer.
  4. Hashing and securely storing user passwords using bcrypt.
  5. Backend validation of data sent from the client.
  6. Efficient database management as well as a clean structure for registering, logging in, and logging out users.

KEY_FEATURES of End-to-End Messaging facility:

  1. Support for web sockets that enables real time data transfer.
  2. A logged in user has the provision to chat end to end with any other registered user.
  3. All your chats are preserved in the database i.e they are not lost when you log out.
  4. A comprehensive structure has been followed to keep the chats between distinct pair of users in Mongo DB cloud.
  5. The entire chat service is behind the JWT based auth.
