## Overview

This is a blog publishing platform: readers browse published posts, view and comment on articles; administrators authenticate, manage posts and comments, and can request AI-generated draft content. The backend handles publishing, moderation, and public reads, while MongoDB-backed models hold blog and comment state. Blog images are uploaded to ImageKit, and content generation uses Gemini. Frontend page and admin-component wiring beyond the sampled files is not fully established, so uncertain UI-to-admin API links are omitted.

Main entry points: [`Frontend/src/App.jsx`](https://github.com/jack8084/blogs/blob/main/Frontend/src/App.jsx) (Route selection), [`Backend/controllers/blogcontroller.js`](https://github.com/jack8084/blogs/blob/main/Backend/controllers/blogcontroller.js) (Blog workflows), [`Backend/server.js`](https://github.com/jack8084/blogs/blob/main/Backend/server.js) (API server), [`Frontend/src/pages/Blog.jsx`](https://github.com/jack8084/blogs/blob/main/Frontend/src/pages/Blog.jsx) (Article page)
