To run the project, you need to set up the following environment variables. Create a .env file in the root of your project and add the following variables with your own values:
# .env
MONGO_URI="mongodb+srv:https://your-username:[email protected]/?retryWrites=true&w=majority"
JWT_SECRET="your-jwt-secret-key"
CLOUD_NAME="your-cloudinary-cloud-name"
CLOUD_KEY="your-cloudinary-api-key"
CLOUD_KEY_SECRET="your-cloudinary-api-key-secret"
