Summary

In this chapter, we discussed how to create MVC applications using Node.js and the express framework, with an application fully on the server side-something very similar to applications created with the Rails or Django framework.

We also built safe routes and a very robust authentication with session control, storage of session cookies, and encrypted passwords.

We used MongoDB to store the data of users and comments.

In the next chapter, we will see how to use another database system with express and Node.js.
