# Project: Blog + CMS (ID: JS-3)
## Project given by Levin from 'Garbage Collector' Organization from discord
## Difficulty: Intermediate to advanced
## Task
#### Build a database-driven (persistent) blog themed application, including a (small) Content-Management System (CMS) for administrators to manage it.
* Blog
* [x] Securely register and log in users => Password hashing, session management, authorization and authentication
* [x] Allow authorized users to:
* [x] Create new blog posts - a post should include
* [x] a title
* [x] an author
* [x] some content
* [x] is published
* [ ] (Optional): a post picture
* [x] Edit their own posts
* [x] Delete their own posts (Soft Delete)
* [x] View their own profile information, which should include
* [x] the username
* [x] the E-Mail
* [ ] (Optional): a biography
* [ ] (Optional): a profile picture
* [x] All of their posts
* Get access to the CMS
* [x] for administrators only -> differentiate between normal users and admins
* Additionally, allow everyone to:
* [x] View all published blog posts
* CMS:
* [x] Allow administrators only!
* [x] Get an overview of all registered users, ability to view their information which equals the information the user should be able to see about him/herself
* [x] Edit and delete any post
* [x] Delete user accounts
* [x] Create user accounts
* [x] Grant users administrator privileges
* [ ] (Optional): Statistics of registrations and/or posts
## Stretch - Plan to implement task apart from given
* [x] Use access token and refresh token for authentication and authorization -> super fun while implementing this 😊
* [x] User Forgot Password
* [x] Lock user account
* [x] Send email with token
* [x] Change password and unlock the user's account. Invalidated all old tokens in this process
* [ ] Allow user to hard delete any data (eg. Blog post)
* [ ] Likes and comments on blog post
## Graphical Assets

[Feedback](./FEEDBACK.txt)
> It was a really fun assignment to work on and Levin was a good mentor who helped me many times by giving advices on some logic or method of implementation of code. Overall I took many good things from this assignment and now publicly keeping it open source for anyone to use and add more features to it.
