Description
Hi Dan,
This is quite likely for another time, but I found that a lot of students generally are looking for some basic authentication. Express has a handy `basic-express-auth` library for handling simple authentication.
I made an example which "protects" an application with a simple username and password. The example shows what this looks like for NeDB and mongodb

This example pairs with this live coding video tutorial
