###Technology Stack This web app is powered by the MEAN stack ####Front End Front end is structured as a Signle Page Application using Augular.

######Views There are six partial views under /client/app/Views

• addEvent - adding an event
• event - fetching and displaying one event
• landing - landing page, fetching and displaying all events
• signin - signin page
• signup - signup page
• user - display user info

######Controllers Each view has its own controller under /client/app/controllers.

######Factories There are two factories under /client/app/Factories

• Event
• UserAuth

Event factory should handle all backend api call about events. UserAuth factory should handle all backend api call about signin/signout.

######$rootScope/security This app utilize broswer's localStorage and Angular's $rootScope to verify and display navbar options based on if a user is signed in. Once a user is signed in, Angular store the jwt token in the browser's local storage, and all requests send from the user will have the token attached in the header's Authorization field. For details, see $http documentation, the section setting HTTP Headers. In addition, only signin view, signup view and the landing page view is visibile for users not signed in.

######Todos

• refactor EventCtrl and landingCtrl to use Event factory method

###Features to be implemented
