Welcome to the YouTube Backend System – a robust and efficient server-side solution for managing YouTube-like applications. Crafted with precision and scalability in mind, this project showcases production-level code written primarily in JavaScript. Leveraging a powerful stack of technologies, our backend seamlessly integrates MongoDB, Mongoose, Multer, Aggregation Pipeline, Nodemon, Cloudinary, Cors, Bcrypt, JSON Web Token, Cookie-Parser, and Express to provide a comprehensive and reliable infrastructure.
- MongoDB: A scalable and flexible NoSQL database.
- Mongoose: An elegant MongoDB object modeling tool for Node.js.
- Multer: Streamlining file uploads with ease and efficiency.
- Aggregation Pipeline: Enhancing data processing capabilities.
- Nodemon: Ensuring automatic server restarts for a smoother development exrience.
- Cloudinary: Effortlessly managing and optimizing media assets in the cloud.
- Cors: Enabling cross-origin resource sharing for enhanced security.
- Bcrypt: Providing secure password hashing for user authentication.
- JSON Web Token: Facilitating secure authentication and authorization.
- Cookie-Parser: Simplifying the handling of HTTP cookies.
- Express: A fast and minimalist web framework for Node.js.
- Clone the repository.
- Install dependencies using
npm install
. - Configure your MongoDB connection and Cloudinary API key.
- Run the server with
