In this comprehensive MERN Stack tutorial, we'll dive into the implementation of Forgot Password and Reset Password functionality. Building a secure and user-friendly password recovery system is crucial for any web application, and with the MERN (MongoDB, Express.js, React, Node.js) stack, we'll achieve just that.
What you'll learn in this tutorial
Setting up the MERN Stack project structure
Building the user authentication system with JWT (JSON Web Tokens)
Creating the "Forgot Password" feature:
Generating and sending reset password links via email
Handling the password reset requests securely
Designing a user-friendly "Reset Password" page:
Validating the reset password token
Allowing users to reset their passwords
Securing password reset routes against common attacks (e.g., token expiration, replay attacks)
Bonus: Enhancing security with features like rate limiting and brute force protection
By the end of this tutorial, you'll have a fully functional "Forgot Password" and "Reset Password" implementation in your MERN Stack application, reinforcing your application's security while providing a seamless experience for your users.
