πŸ‘‹ Hi, I'm Alex Appleget

πŸ§‘β€πŸ’» I'm Full-Stack Software Engineer who specializes in TypeScript, React, Next.js, Node.js, Express, and PostgreSQL.

πŸ”’ Lately, I've developed a passion for understanding authentication and how it's built from JWTs to secure cookie management and refresh tokens.

✨ I enjoy Harry Potter and traveling the world.

πŸ“š Project Overview

This web app lets people sign up, create their own worlds (like guilds), invite friends via a join code, and coordinate group gameplay. It's currently tailored for one game my friends and I play, but I plan to expand it to support more games. I built this because Discord can get overcrowded, making it hard to keep track of game coordination. My app helps by providing:

  • Notes for reminders or help requests (ex: "I need help getting more iron ore for my armor.")
  • Event creation so world members can join and see who's available.
  • Admin settings with role-based access control.

I also rolled my own authentication system using JWTs and refresh tokens with httpOnly cookies.
