I am excited to start this new playlist !
By the way, your sound is a bit low compared to other videos I watch. This is not a big issue but I noticed that I always increase the volume on your channel, just FYI ;)

I have one doubt while making requst, Browser share the session id to server, does it also share the jwt to token in cookies
? Thankyou sooo much for your valuable content💖

[adityayeager]

Hey if we dont want to send the sessionID to client side, is there any way for it.

[thesingularity]

What's the best strategy to implement logging user out?

[zillionvfx]

your explanation is very good brother.. everything is very clear... I ve one little question.. so you set cookie duration as 30 mins... so after expires that user has to re enter credentials and re login while user online in the system... so how to persist the session if i want to do so. for feature like "remember me" option. Thank you so much for sharing this awesome knowledge..

Would be great if you could do one of these with passport js

[melim]

Great Effort.
I appreciate it you answer the following question:
Will the session be created for any new request (new customer) if there is no login required (for example : a website which is not required any login, then will the session be created for each user, if yes, then what the benefits I can get from the session). if no, then why not ?
