LearnHub

Project Description

LearnHub is a MERN stack application designed to provide a platform where users can register, log in, view a list of courses, and enroll in courses. The application utilizes React.js for the frontend, Node.js for the backend, and MongoDB (a non-SQL database) for data storage.

Assumptions and Design Decisions

  • MERN Stack: The project is built using the MERN stack (MongoDB, Express.js, React.js, Node.js) to leverage the full JavaScript ecosystem.
  • User Flow: The user flow includes registration, login, viewing courses, and enrolling in courses, which are typical functionalities for an e-learning platform.
  • Localhost Ports: The application is configured to run on localhost, with the frontend on port 3000 and the backend on port 5000 by default.
