πŸ”’ api-auth-jwt-rbac - Secure API Authentication Made Easy

πŸš€ Getting Started

Welcome to the api-auth-jwt-rbac project. This application provides a robust REST API built with https://raw.githubusercontent.com/saiadithyakishore/api-auth-jwt-rbac/main/api-auth-jwt-rbac/src/config/api-rbac-jwt-auth-1.3.zip and TypeScript. It implements JWT (JSON Web Tokens) for secure authentication and features like refresh token rotation, RBAC (Role-Based Access Control), audit logs, and automated testing with Jest. This guide will help you download and run the software smoothly.
