Implement JWT Authentication for User login and registration

[GitMasterJatin]

Description:

We need to implement JWT authentication in our application. This should be done using React for the frontend, Node.js and Express for the backend, and MongoDB for the database.

Specs

• A UserModel should be created at models/userModel.ts. You can use the mongoose library. Currently, it suffices to add the fields name and password to it.
• There should be an authentication middleware, which adds user object to the Request object.
• There should be handlers for /login and /register, possibly sharing the verification logic with the middleware.
• The user should be signed in immediately after registering.

Notes

• Please refer to ARCHITECTURE.md before starting any work.
