Challenges I Faced.
User Authentication
Developing the MERN stack furniture shop posed a significant challenge in implementing secure user
authentication. Managing JWT tokens between frontend and backend, especially storing them in the
local storage for persistent authentication, required careful consideration due to security
vulnerabilities. To address this, I established a robust token-handling mechanism, prioritizing the
security of sensitive information. Creating a secure communication channel between the frontend and
backend ensured seamless token verification, enhancing overall security and reliability in the web
application's authentication process.
Responsive Web Design
Creating a responsive web design for the furniture shop presented a notable challenge. Ensuring
optimal user experience across various devices and screen sizes required meticulous attention to
detail. Overcoming this challenge involved implementing flexible layouts, fluid grids, and media queries
to adapt the website's appearance seamlessly. The goal was to guarantee that users could access and
navigate the site effortlessly, whether on desktops, tablets, or smartphones, ultimately enhancing
accessibility and user satisfaction.
