This repository contains a clone project of Udemy built with NestJS. This project aims to replicate some of the core functionalities of the Udemy platform using the NestJS framework.

This project serves as a learning resource for understanding how to build robust backend applications using NestJS, a progressive Node.js framework. It demonstrates various features of NestJS, including:

• Controllers and Routing
• Dependency Injection
• Middleware
• Authentication and Authorization
• Database Integration (e.g., TypeORM, MongoDB)
• Error Handling
• Testing (e.g., Unit Testing, End-to-End Testing)

By exploring this project, developers can gain insights into best practices for structuring and implementing backend applications with NestJS.

To run the NestJS Udemy clone project locally, follow these steps:

1. Clone the Repository:

   git clone https://github.com/anarbyrm/education-app.git
   

2. Install Dependencies:

   cd education-app
   npm install
   

3. Start the Development Server:

   npm run start:dev
   

This command will start the development server. The server runs on: http://localhost:.

4. Set Up Environment Variables:

Before running the project, make sure to set up the necessary environment variables. Refer to the Environment Variables section below for a list of required variables.

The following environment variables need to be set up for the NestJS Udemy clone project to function correctly:

NODE_ENV=
HOST=
PORT=

JWT_SECRET=
AVATAR_MAX_SIZE=

SMTP_HOST=
SMTP_PORT=
SMTP_USERNAME=
SMTP_PASSWORD=
SMTP_SENDER=

SECRET=
VECTOR=
(Add any additional environment variables if necessary)

Make sure to provide appropriate values for these variables in your development environment. You can set these variables in a .env file located in the root directory of the project.

5. Explore the API Endpoints:

Once the server is running, you can explore the available API endpoints using:

• tools like Postman or cURL.
• swagger API doc at "/docs" endpoint
