Overview:

The Simple app described in the content utilizes Node.js, Express.js, and MongoDB for the backend Authentication API, and React.js for the client-side application. The server-side features a simple structure with JWT authentication implemented using refresh tokens. It includes REST APIs for registration, authorization, password restoration, confirmation of restoration, password autogeneration, email sending with Mailgun, validation schema with AJV, responsive email templates, error handling, and Docker compose setup. On the client side, the project has a basic structure, uses Create React App, Ant Design for design, Redux for state management, and Axios interceptors for managing tokens in LocalStorage.

Features:

• Simple Structure: Easy to understand organization of files and folders.
• JWT Authentication: Utilizes JSON Web Tokens for secure user authentication.
• REST APIs: Registration, authorization, and password restoration APIs included.
• Email Functionality: Integration for sending emails with Mailgun and capturing emails as .eml files in dev mode.
• Error Handling: Error decorator and logging for efficient debugging.
• Responsive Email Templates: Uses responsive HTML email template for consistent email layouts.
• Docker Compose: Simplifies deployment using Docker containers.
• Client-Side Application: Includes a basic React.js client with Ant Design components and Redux for state management.

Installation:

To install and run the project, follow these steps:

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone <repository_url>
   

2. Navigate to the server folder and install dependencies:
