MongoDB and Mongoose Challenges - FreeCodeCamp Solution

This repository contains my solution to the MongoDB and Mongoose challenges as part of the FreeCodeCamp curriculum. It's designed to help you understand the intricacies of database operations using MongoDB and the Mongoose library.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

Node.js and npm installed on your machine.
A MongoDB Atlas account or local MongoDB setup.

Setup

After cloning this repository, install the required dependencies:

npm install

Create a .env file in the root of the project. Populate it with your MongoDB connection details:

MONGO_USERNAME=your_username
MONGO_PASSWORD=your_password
CLUSTER=your_cluster_name

Note: Make sure to replace your_username, your_password, and your_cluster_name with your actual MongoDB Atlas credentials.

Start the server:

npm start
