How mihalypal/prf-forum works

PRF-Forum is a browser-based forum with an Angular frontend and an Express/Mongoose backend. Users register or log in, browse topics, open discussions, comment and like; authenticated users can manage their topics, while administrators can manage users. The frontend routes screens through services that make credentialed HTTP requests to backend routes, which apply authentication and persist forum data in MongoDB. The graph includes documented routes and major README capabilities; several screens and backend route handlers were not sampled, so their internal relationships are not asserted.
