Issues

I am aware that there are a lot of issues with the project, if possible, open issues only for severe problems.

Self-hosting

   Encryption_Key=

   DB = MongoDB connection string.

Ecryption_Key = A string which will be used to encrypt the session cookies

2. Run npm i
3. Run npm test
4. Go to https://127.0.0.2:3000

Password example: $2b$10$3TsrEozOYxBa/nAwrwZazudUc68ut.oTR/o1RCXRASLnJxi7zMHw.
JWT token example: eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJ1c2VySUQiOiI2NDk2YTQ4NmUyMDZmM2RiNTI1Zjc3NjciLCJkYXRlIjoxNjg4Mzk1NzYwNjY1LCJhZGRvbiI6IjE4ODk5NjIzNDNkMDk1ZTkzNjAzNmE2ODVhOTA1NDRmMWQ0MDQzYTYxZTc5MDY1NiIsInN1YmZlZGRpdHMiOnt9LCJkZXNjcmlwdGlvbiI6IkkgaGF2ZW4ndCBzZXQgYSBkZXNjcmlwdGlvbiB5ZXQhIiwiaWF0IjoxNjg4Mzk1NzYwfQ.CJgeCdC1VKKQ5oPuGg7veLnO1pkcAg8Y_vG-en7e1BQ
