O’Reilly covers everything we've got, with content to help us build a world-class technology community, upgrade the capabilities and competencies of our teams, and improve overall team performance as well as their engagement.
I wanted to learn C and C++, but it didn't click for me until I picked up an O'Reilly book. When I went on the O’Reilly platform, I was astonished to find all the books there, plus live events and sandboxes so you could play around with the technology.
I’ve been on the O’Reilly platform for more than eight years. I use a couple of learning platforms, but I'm on O'Reilly more than anybody else. When you're there, you start learning. I'm never disappointed.
I'm always learning. So when I got on to O'Reilly, I was like a kid in a candy store. There are playlists. There are answers. There's on-demand training. It's worth its weight in gold, in terms of what it allows me to do.
Installing additional middleware
As you can see in the previous sections, we used some middleware to display messages and the user icon using the gravatar. In this section, we will see how to install some very important modules for our application.
Since we created templates for the signin, signup, and profile pages, we will need to store the users with login and password.
These are the middleware that we will use for this task, with the definition for each one:
|
Component |
Description |
More details |
|
|
User-friendly messages | |
|
|
Drive to connect with MongoDB | |
|
|
Store user sessions in the DB |
