OVERVIEWReal-Time Chat Application with React.js and Node.js

a real-time chat application developed using React.js and Node.js. This dynamic and interactive platform enables instant communication, offering a responsive design and a user-friendly interface for users to connect seamlessly. Key features include real-time messaging, multimedia sharing, and secure user authentication.

Role

In the development of this real-time chat website, I played a multifaceted role as the lead developer. Leveraging a powerful stack of technologies, including React.js, react-router-dom, react-oauth/google, js-cookie, axios, pusher-js, cloudinary, express, mongoose, jsonwebtoken, nodemailer, and pusher, I oversaw the entire project from conceptualization to deployment. My responsibilities included:

  • Front-End Development: Utilizing React.js and react-router-dom, I crafted a user-friendly and responsive interface that ensures a seamless experience for users. Integration of react-oauth/google allowed for secure and convenient user authentication.
  • Real-Time Messaging: I implemented the real-time messaging feature using Pusher technology, enabling users to exchange messages instantly.
  • Media Sharing: By integrating Cloudinary, I enabled users to share multimedia content within the chat, enhancing the user experience.
  • Back-End Development: On the server side, I employed Express.js and Mongoose for efficient data handling, ensuring that user data and chat messages were stored securely and efficiently.
  • Authentication and Security: The implementation of jsonwebtoken added an extra layer of security for user data, while also allowing for protected routes.
  • Email verification: I used Nodemailer to provide email notifications for user actions, enhancing user engagement and communication.
