Statusfer\n\n## Overview\n\nA real-time short-form blogging CRUD web-app where you can post and see other users' chats using a REST API, \u003cspan\u003esocket.io\u003c/span\u003e, and MongoDB.\n\n## How to Use\n\n- Go to [Statusfer](https://statusfer.fly.dev)\n- Register an account\n- Type your first status in the textbox and click _Post_\n- Edit and delete your statuses using the buttons attached to them\n- Like or dislike statuses with the feedback arrow icon buttons\n- View a status by clicking the _View_ button\n- View a user's profile by clicking on their username\n- View your profile or choose to logout by clicking on Profile\n- When on profile, click Settings if you want to change your username, email, password, or delete your account\n- When logged out, go to Login to access your account again\n\n## How It Works\n\n### Client-side\n\n- Fetch API is used to communicate with the server\n- Uses the \u003cspan\u003esocket.io\u003c/span\u003e client to listen for events and update pages in real-time\n\n### Server-side\n\n- Uses Express.js as the back-end framework for the Node.js runtime to deliver resources to the client\n- Mongoose API is used to communicate with the MongoDB database\n- Bcryptjs hashes passwords so they can be securely stored in the database\n- JWTs are used to authenticate users for user requests\n- Uses \u003cspan\u003esocket.io\u003c/span\u003e to emit events for the client\n- Filters profanity using the _obscenity_ package\n\n## Why?\n\n- To demonstrate my full-stack skills and not use any frameworks like React\n- Wanted to learn about encryption and security for user data, REST API architecture for creating a CRUD web-app\n- Test my ability to create and become a better developer\n\n## How to Run It Locally\n\n- Clone the repository:\n\n```\ngit clone https://github.com/Brochin5671/statusfer.git\n```\n\n- Ensure to create a **.env** file with the following variables:\n\n```\nDB_CONNECTION=\u003cconnection link to your MongoDB cluster\u003e\n\nACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET=\u003cyour secret\u003e\n\nREFRESH_TOKEN_SECRET=\u003cyour secret\u003e\n```\n\n- Run your application\n\n- Ensure Node v18.x is installed\n\n```\nnpm ci\nnpm start\n```\n\n- The application will be available at **localhost:3000**\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fbrochin5671%2Fstatusfer","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fbrochin5671%2Fstatusfer","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fbrochin5671%2Fstatusfer/lists"}
