Why take this course?

What is PassportJs?

Passport is a middleware for express.js. It supports various login types, Basic, Token, Local (username, password), OAuth, OAuth2, etc. We can combine these to allow users to authenticate by signing in with Google, FB, or whatever service with very minimal amount of code. We can also use this to combine external auth services so users can choose to login with one of the selected Strategies, e.g. Google, Twitter. It's much quicker to use passport for authentication than to build one yourself from scratch. This is why we use passport. You don't need passport, it just makes developing quicker

What you will learn in this course:

Implement JSON Web token Authentication using Passport-JWT strategy
Implement Twitter Authentication using Passport-Twitter Strategy

I came to this course expecting to learn passport and passport-jwt. But it seems author thinks that the people who come to this course already knows these two. This is because he is coding without explaining the components of this library and how the various callbacks are called. Also it doesnt deal with scenarios like token expiration etc. In twitter example we are storring the token in user model. Why is that required ? These are doubts I have and since this course leads you wil lot of open ended questions I will expect the author to relook at the course content and publish a revamped course. This is not worth recommending to anyone. It is better to learn this from the passport site.

The instructor basically typed up the examples from Passport documentation, without any explanations or details. I learned zero in this course.
