Authentication

ChefGPT supports both JWT Authentication and Google OAuth 2.0 Authentication.

Authentication Methods

Email & Password Login

Users can register and log in using their email address and password. Passwords are securely hashed using bcryptjs before being stored in the database.

Google Sign-In

Users can also sign in securely using their Google account through OAuth 2.0. Upon successful authentication, a JWT token is generated and used to access protected routes.
