Hike EU Backend

Hike EU is a site where users can browse hiking routes and post their own trails using interactive mapping and blogging features!

The backend is a simple REST api written in Node.js.

  • Sequelize is used with PostgreSQL to build and seed the database
  • Routes include basic validation and are authenticated with a middleware where appropriate
  • Users are issued with JSON Web Tokens when they login (checked by the middleware when needed)

Here is a link to the Hike EU client repository which has a demo of the app in action.

This is a link to the deployed app. You can login with email: test@test.com and password: test1234 if you would like to try out the hiking route creation features.
