1. Clone the Repository:

   git clone https://github.com/CodexParas/credentials-auth-nextjs.git
   

2. Install Dependencies:

   cd credentials-auth-nextjs
   npm install

Usage

This starter includes a basic authentication setup using Next Auth with credentials. Customize and extend the authentication flow according to your application's requirements.

• Authentication routes can be found in the src/app/api/auth directory.
• User model and authentication logic are in the src/models/userModel.js file.
• Protected routes are demonstrated in the src/middleware.js file.

Feel free to build on top of this starter and add more features to suit your project needs.

Additional Notes

• Make sure to keep sensitive information such as API keys and secrets secure. Use environment variables to manage them.
• Refer to the documentation of each library (Next Auth, Mongoose, Tailwind CSS, bcryptjs, React Toastify) for more in-depth information.

Happy coding!
