Interesting lesson but a little more practical context for the project built in the lesson would have been better. Such as: We are building this API that is delivering jokes or something like that. This API will be consumed by other APIs, therefore we use oauth2-server to make a client credentials grant flow for our customers (other developers connecting to the API). That would have been helpful to better understand where this library/technique is the right tool for the job. Perhaps the last demo of the functionality can even include 2 servers - the one we build with oauth2-server and another one (with a UI) that gains access to the API after client secret is entered and gets some data.
By far the worst lesson on the Full Stack course. Mountains of information is thrown at you with such little context; you don’t see what’s going on making it so much more difficult to understand. Inconsistencies in what passes a check on each step, combined with a lack of explanations for certain code lines (for example, why do we use next() on a successful .then but res.send(err) on a catch as opposed to next(err)) make this a terrible lesson. I don’t look forward to inevitably returning to this section because of its complexity; Mike is completely correct in his suggestion but the backend side of the course is totally neglected from what I’ve experienced so far…
Edit: This correct answer being given text that says it’s wrong, but choosing another answer says this is the correct answer.
