Brewery Companion
Brewery Companion is a full-stack web application that allows users to search breweries, create an account, save favorites, and leave reviews. The frontend is built with React and styled using Styled Components, while the backend is powered by Node.js and Express. MongoDB is used for persistent data storage, including user accounts and reviews. User authentication and session management are handled with JSON Web Tokens (JWT). The app demonstrates CRUD operations, API design and creation, protected routes, and clean separation of concerns between frontend and backend components.
