A simple API made with NodeJS using Express.

When I was learning how to put an API together in this manner, I followed this guide: https://www.toptal.com/nodejs/secure-rest-api-in-nodejs

I used his skeleton as a starting point and I modified it over time to serve my needs.

A couple of big differences are that I use bcrypt for hashing and I create my refresh token and my access token in two separate middleware functions.

Copy the environment.template.js file and rename it to remove the template portion. Then fill in the information as required. The API is then good for use.
