Well alright! Let's build our first Feathers app! We're going to build a real-time chat app with NeDB as the database. It's a great way to cover all the things that you'd need to do in a real world application and how Feathers can help. It also makes a lot more sense to have a real-time component than a Todo list. 😉
In this tutorial you go from nothing to a real-time chat app complete with signup, login, token based authentication and authorization all with a RESTful and real-time API.
You can find a complete working example here.
