Your course is very complete, you know how to teach, explaining the theory (Diagrams), while put in practice the code, greatly reducing the level of frustration, typical on programing, frustration is the reason for someone leave a tutorial . Congratulations

This course is great.
There is a mistake in the field "type" in "available".

available: {
type Boolean,
default: false
}

":" is missing (after "type").
It should be:

available: {
type: Boolean,
default: false
}

Thanks for the great tutorials!! I have a question. What is the right data type to store the URLs in mongodb?

[spacetimekiddo]

I suggest to anyone who have not learn pure mongoDB to back off, diving to mongoose without at least intoduction to pure mongoDB will defeat the purpose of using NoSQL database. I suggest that you get familiar with pure mongo db create some projects with it and get back learning how to be make REST API
