Node.js, express.js and Sequelize codebase containing real world examples (CRUD, auth, advanced patterns, etc) that adheres to the RealWorld spec and API.

Demo    RealWorld

This codebase was created to demonstrate a fully fledged fullstack application built with node.js, express.js, Sequelize, and Postgres including CRUD operations, authentication, routing, pagination, and more.

We've gone to great lengths to adhere to the express community styleguides & best practices.

For more information on how to this works with other frontends/backends, head over to the RealWorld repo.

How it works

The public folder has a complied JavaScript client in it to interact with the program.
