Description
Unlock the power of secure user authentication by mastering JSON Web Tokens (JWT) in a real-world Node.js environment. This course is designed for developers who want to build scalable, secure backend systems using modern practices with Express.js and the Model-View-Controller (MVC) architectural pattern.
In thefirst partof this course, we start by setting up a clean and organized Express.js project using the MVC structure. You’ll learn how to separate your codebase into models, views, and controllers to create maintainable and scalable applications. We'll cover routing, middleware, and folder structuring—everything needed to prepare a professional-grade backend foundation.
Thesecond partdives into JWT—what it is, how it works, and why it’s one of the most widely used methods for stateless authentication. You’ll learn how to generate, sign, verify, and protect routes using JWTs. By the end, you'll have built a fully functional authentication system from scratch, including secure login, registration, token refresh, and protected routes.
This course is perfect for developers familiar with a fairly good knowledge regarding JavaScript who want to deepen their backend skills and build real-world authentication systems using JWT.
In the course I do not mention theSession authentication systemwhich has advantages and disadvantages compared to the JWT token . Is a topic for another course I encourage you to read something about it to be able to compare and the decide which of the two systems is more suitable for your application needs.
Who this course is for:
- Backend/Fullstack developers.
