Thank you for providing these latest MERN tutorials Brad, they came at a great time. I just finished the code along for this tutorial and the MERN stack tutorial you dropped a few days ago. I did manage to get everything working per the videos specs, but of course, the true learning happens when I'm able to take this code and apply to my own projects - breaking stuff along the way. Thanks again for providing friend. I look forward to the front end portion.

Just wanted to say how much I appreciate the effort you've put in to help fellow developers like myself grasp the concepts that you are covering. You have a way of methodically and calmly explaining something, that just make it make sense. Everything seems to clean and easy after following your tutorials. Keep up the amazing work! You truly are an inspiration to all of us, from where you came from to where you are now

Brad,

Thanks for the MERN Stack series. You hide the complexity with the way you explain it. You're one of those few teachers that really know how to explain things. I'm eager and can't wait to see how/what you'll be explaining in the front-end. Wish you the best!

Thank you Brad!

This Project is awesome, I love the way you explain things, I feel like I've been coding for years! Thank you so much for your dedication and hard work. Looking foward to become a MERN Stack Developer at the end of this Project.

Amazing tutorial! This cleared a lot of doubts for me regarding JWT and protecting routes. Cant wait for the frontend part.

These tutorials have made so many things more clear to me!! You're an excellent teacher, thanks so much.

What a phenomenal tutorial Brad. I was able to follow along and get the whole thing working. I learned so much. It was challenging from start to finish especially once it got to the authorization and authentication. I still have a lot to learn about these concepts. Thank you so much for this!

Thanks for another great lesson.

I'm adapting this to a postgreSQL backend using pg-promise instead of mongoose, and your instructions still help a lot!

[monciego]

Thank you so much for this sir! I commend your dedication and hard work for giving us a wonderful content!

[mattbaillie]

Phenomenal video as always Brad. Your blend of building projects and explaining the concepts you are implementing makes learning so much easier. This whole video series so far has been great at teaching me Mongo/Mongoose and reviewing JWT. Thank you for all that you and your team do.
