Created a simple blog app. User can sing-up and login and then post any post and also like or dislike the post

In this project, I have made a backend of a blog-app website using Express framework of NodeJS. I have also used JWT-authentication token to verify the if the user is valid or not.

Task Details:

Lets make a simple blog app with only the home page functional. a user should be able to:

-Register using email & password ( use JWT for authentication )
