Hey Nathan, love your course. It's really easy to follow and very well explained.

Just a piece of advice, when you have to substitute a lot of text (e.g. projects/project to users/user @ 8:00) just select one and press Ctrl + D to select all the ones that match. This way you can substitute all of them in a more efficient manner!

Hi) Again thx) Had the issue with extending express Request, fixed it with adding index.d.ts file e.g:
export {};

declare global {
namespace Express {
interface Request {
user: {
username: string;
email: string;
password: string;
isAdmin: boolean;
isSuperAdmin: boolean;
resetPasswordToken: string,
resetPasswordExpires: Date,
};
}
}
}

And also start script to "nodemon --files ./server/init.ts". maybe will be helpful for someone)
