Just messing around with Nest Js and Auth0

• Set up app via Auth0 UI

• Install Nest cli npm install -g @nestjs/cli globally

• Create Nest js app nest new <app-name>

• cd into app folder

• Install the following:

  • passport-auth0 (Auth0 strategy)
  • passport-local, passport, @nestjs/passport, @types/passport-local (local strategy)
  • passport-jwt, @types/passport-jwt, @nestjs/jwt (jwt strategies
  • dotenv for env variables

  npm install passport-auth0 passport-local passport @nestjs/passport @types/passport-local passport-jwt @types/passport-jwt @nestjs/jwt dotenv

• Create User resource in Nest app (User module handles user functions → registration, login, profile management, token validation) nest g resource user --no-spec (no spec option tells nest not to create a test file for this module, skipping tests for the purpose of this trial)
