Return Authentication Token Upon Successful Login
Currently, upon successful login, the API returns a success message, but no token is provided for authentication in subsequent requests. Consider implementing JWT or session tokens to handle authenticated requests securely.
Would you like assistance in implementing JWT authentication and generating tokens upon successful login?

Handle duplicate email errors when creating a new user
Currently, if a user tries to register with an email that already exists, the server responds with a generic "Internal server error". It's better to catch this specific error and return a more informative message to the client.

Use generic error messages to prevent user enumeration attacks
Returning different error messages for "User not found" and "Invalid password" allows an attacker to determine if an email exists in the database. For security reasons, use a generic error message.

Consider returning a token upon successful login
Currently, the
loginUser
function responds with a simple success message. It's common practice to generate and return a JWT or session token that the client can use for authenticated requests.Would you like assistance in implementing token-based authentication?
