  • Local (email/password)
  • Google (oAuth)
  • Twitter (oAuth)
  • Facebook (oAuth)
• Link and unlink user accounts to the aforementioned authentication strategies.

Instructions

• Install packages: npm install
• Set your own database configuration on config/database.js
• Copy the file config/auth.js.example to config/auth.js and use your own keys
• Launch the mongodb on the directory ./db: npm run startdb
• Launch this project: npm run start
