This was done in order to get a better understanding in the field of web development as a MEAN stack developer. The project revolves around some features of JS from exciting frontend animations with JS to writing server side code with NODE JS . The major highlights of this project are authentication, authorization , body-parsing , Database connectivity , seeding, password resetting through Gmail with async waterfall method , templating engines EJS, searching , basic comment system , Login and Logout , express sessions etc. In this a large number of npm pacakages like flash , express , body-parser, method-override etc along with node.js library like express.js has been used in order to code the website such that it results in an attractive , responsive and a beautiful project with a single technology that is JS. Though it lacks responsiveness in some sense.
