Just Jotit

An sample Fullstack application using the Mongo + Express + Node + jQuery stack. The final result is a note keeping app with cloud sync. You can find a live version of it here.

Progress Checklist

This app is currently about 90% complete. It has a 100% back end with happy-path unit test coverage for all routes. It has a basic Frontend as well, but it's about 85% complete. Login, Signup, Logout, Homepage, Note details and Note creation are all functional. All that's left to do is Note Editing + Deletion and it will be 100% complete. There is no ETA aprox. for when this will be finished out of personal time constraints.

Comments to explain the application flow are added plentifully everywhere possible, but notable areas where they are lacking at the moment are in some unit tests, and the front-end. I will add these when I have the time.

Pre-requisites
