NodeJs-GraphQL Project

Overview

This project is a simple Node.js application designed to experiment with GraphQL API designs. It is not intended for production use but rather serves as a learning and experimentation platform.

Features

• GraphQL API: Implemented using Apollo Server and GraphQL.
• User Authentication: Basic user authentication with JWT.
• MongoDB Integration: Uses Mongoose for MongoDB interactions.
• TypeScript: Written in TypeScript for type safety and better development experience.
• Validation: Input validation using validator library.
• Environment Configuration: Managed using dotenv.

Project Structure

• src/graphql: Contains GraphQL schema and resolvers.
• src/Models: Mongoose models for MongoDB collections.
• src/utils: Utility functions for database connection and validation.
• src/server.ts: Entry point of the application.
