# Next.js and Express JWT authentication
## Introduction
This repo hold both - server and client apps for fully functional example of JWT authentication.
- [Server](./backend) - based on Express and MongoDB as data storage, but can be replaced to any custom data storage.
- [Client](./frontend) - based on Next.js.
## Workflow
1. Run MongoDB, Server and Client.
1. Register user (described in backend directory).
2. Enter enter email/password in client app, press submit.
3. App sends request to server for user authentication.
* SUCCESS - responds with **token** which is stored in cookie.
* FAILURE - respond with particular HTTP code (no user data specified or wrong auth data provided).
4. By navigating between pages client app sends request to server with token to validation.
