Customize a Full Stack Application using Augment Code

This repo stores a full stack project using Angular for the frontend and an Express server as the backend. The branches represent different stages/demos:

• main - Contains the completed application, with a functioning Express server, server-side security, authentication & login guardrails for the front-end, and some debug logs. WILL CONTINUOUSLY BE ADDED UPON.
• frontend - Starting point of the application, with a basic frontend using a local DB and json-server. Walk through for this branch would be setting up a 'Search' feature with Augment.
• dependencies - Contains the updated dependencies package.json, using Augment Code recommendations. TO BE ADDED.
• backend - The completed Express server for the backend, adding upon and integrating with the frontend branch.
• mongoDB - The completed integration of mongoDB with the backend.
• backend-security - Completed security for the Express server using authN and authZ, including the creation of JWTs and tokenization methods, along with RBAC for certain API endpoints.
• frontend-security - Adds upon backend-security branch to implement a login portal, along with auth-based guardrails for site routing. TO BE ADDED
• graphQL - Converting backend from REST to GraphQL API usage.

TO RUN THE PROJECT FROM /main

SETUP

• Ensure you have node.js and npm installed.
• Check the version of node using node --version
• If node version is <18, updated node using nvm install 20 and switch to the new version using nvm use 20
• Install the latest version of Angular using npm install -g @angular/cli

DEPLOY

• In an open Terminal, switch to the frontend directory and run ng serve. This should build and deploy the Angular app on localhost.

• If there are any issues, you may try npm install or npm install --legacy-peer-deps. Also ensure you are on Node v20

• In a separate Terminal, switch to the backend directory and run node server.js. This should build and deploy the Express server on localhost.

• If there are any issues, you may try npm install to update the package-lock.json and restart the server.
