A real-time Node.js app with Express.js as a back-end framework and Handlebars for the template engine. It provides real-time chatting using Socket.io.

devs-hub

Inspired by Brad's ChatCord Tutorial, I made this real-time Node.js application that provides real-time communication about development topics as well as allows users to add their own topics. It provides typical functionalities for a backend app such as authentication (using GitHub), GET/POST requests handling, database connection and modeling, sessions and cookies, and more.
