In this video, I will be building a complete authentication module with logout and refresh functionality. I will also show how you can use access tokens and refresh tokens with passport js and nestJs.

If you love this video consider leaving me a like to help with the youtube algorithm and subscribing if you haven't.

IMPORTANT: Please use argon for hashing and verifying refresh tokens (https://www.npmjs.com/package/argon2). Bcrypt is only good for short passwords (less than 74 bytes). Since our refresh token is a JWT, it will be longer than 74 bytes, so our bcrypt compare function might return true when it should not!
