The idea is to minimize the web page address into something that's easier to remember and track.\n\n**ExpressJS Node.js Project with MongoDB and JWT Authentication**\n\n## Overview\nThis project is a robust URL shortener built with Express.js and Node.js, backed by MongoDB for data storage. The application adheres to the MVC (Model-View-Controller) architectural pattern for a clean and organized codebase. User authentication is implemented using JWT (JSON Web Token) for secure access to the shortened URL management features.\n\n## Sample Images of Project\n\n![Screenshot (230)](https://github.com/vrun545/URL-Shortner/assets/63057049/138eb71e-1652-4cab-b579-b1d4ad4ab1cf)\n\n![Screenshot (231)](https://github.com/vrun545/URL-Shortner/assets/63057049/7c469811-80a4-42b1-9298-d7a3e6004822)\n\n## Features\n\n- **URL Shortening:** Easily create short URLs for long web addresses.\n- **MVC Architecture:** Structured codebase following the MVC design pattern for maintainability and scalability.\n- **User Authentication:** Secure user access with JWT authentication.\n\n## Technologies Used\n\n- **Express.js:** A fast and minimalist web application framework for Node.js.\n- **Node.js:** A JavaScript runtime for server-side development.\n- **MongoDB:** A NoSQL database for efficient storage of URL data.\n- **JWT:** JSON Web Tokens for secure and stateless user authentication.\n\n## Getting Started\n\n### Prerequisites\n\n- Node.js and npm installed\n- MongoDB installed and running\n\n### Installation\n\n1.
