### Package list

| Package | Description |
| ----------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| ts-node | TypeScript execution and REPL for node.js, with source map and native ESM support. |
| ts-node-dev | It restarts target node process when any of required files changes (as standard node-dev) but shares Typescript compilation process between restarts. This significantly increases speed of restarting comparing to node-dev -r ts-node/register ..., nodemon -x ts-node ... variations because there is no need to instantiate ts-node compilation each time. |
| tsc-alias | Replace alias paths with relative paths after typescript compilation. You can add aliases that reference other projects outside your tsconfig.json project by providing a relative path to the baseUrl. |
| tsconfig-paths | Use this to load modules whose location is specified in the paths section of tsconfig.json or jsconfig.json. Both loading at run-time and via API are supported. |
| typescript | TypeScript is a language for application-scale JavaScript. TypeScript adds optional types to JavaScript that support tools for large-scale JavaScript applications for any browser, for any host, on any OS |
| cross-env | Run scripts that set and use environment variables across platforms |
| express | Fast, unopinionated, minimalist web framework for Node.js. |
| email-templates | Create, preview (browser/iOS Simulator), and send custom email templates for Node.js. Made for Forward Email and Lad. |
| nodemailer | Easy as cake e-mail sending from your Node.js applications |
| ejs | Embedded JavaScript templates |
| cors | CORS is a node.js package for providing a Connect/Express middleware that can be used to enable CORS with various options. |
| bcrypt | A library to help you hash passwords. |
| dotenv | Dotenv is a zero-dependency module that loads environment variables from a .env file into process.env. Storing configuration in the environment separate from code is based on The Twelve-Factor App methodology. |
| http-status-codes | Constants enumerating the HTTP status codes. Based on the Java Apache HttpStatus API. |
| i18next | i18next is a very popular internationalization framework for browser or any other javascript environment (eg. Node.js, Deno). |
| i18next-http-middleware | This is a middleware to be used with Node.js web frameworks like express or Fastify and also for Deno. |
| jsonwebtoken | An implementation of JSON Web Tokens. |
| mongoose | Mongoose is a MongoDB object modeling tool designed to work in an asynchronous environment. Mongoose supports Node.js and Deno (alpha). |
| randomstring | A module for generating random strings |
| redis | A modern, high performance Redis client |
| validator | A library of string validators and sanitizers. |
| winston | A logger for just about everything. |
| eslint | An AST-based pattern checker for JavaScript. |
| eslint-config-prettier | Turns off all rules that are unnecessary or might conflict with Prettier. |
| eslint-plugin-import | This plugin intends to support linting of ES2015+ (ES6+) import/export syntax, and prevent issues with misspelling of file paths and import names. All the goodness that the ES2015+ static module syntax intends to provide, marked up in your editor. |
| eslint-plugin-prettier | Runs Prettier as an ESLint rule and reports differences as individual ESLint issues. |
| eslint-plugin-unicorn | More than 100 powerful ESLint rules |
| prettier | Prettier is an opinionated code formatter |

COPY .env.example to .env

```bash
cp .env.example .env
```

### API Start

### Mailcatcher

If you're looking for an easy-to-use tool to test your email SMTP functionality, I highly recommend using [Mailcatcher](https://mailcatcher.me/). Mailcatcher is a simple SMTP server that catches all your outgoing emails and displays them in a web interface for easy viewing.

### To install [Prettier](https://prettier.io/) and [ESLint](https://eslint.org/) in [Visual Studio Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/), you can follow these steps:

- Open Visual Studio Code and navigate to your project folder.
- Press Ctrl + Shift + P (Windows) or Cmd + Shift + P (Mac) to open the Command Palette.
- Type "Extensions: Install Extensions" and select the first option that appears.
- In the search bar, type "Prettier" and select the first result that appears.
- Click the "Install" button to install Prettier.
- Repeat step 4 and 5 to install ESLint.
