101. 🔐 Build a REST API User Auth System with Middleware Support | Node.js Backend Tutorial

In this video, we’ll fully implement the /api/user route to return authenticated user profile information using a session token. Once the token is validated, we retrieve and send back the user’s name and username.

We’ll also plan out and structure additional RESTful routes for logging out, updating user profiles, and creating posts — all of which will eventually use authentication and JSON parsing logic.

Perfect for beginners learning how to build backend APIs and understand session-based authentication systems!
