Frequently asked questions

What are the prerequisites to run this server?

You need Node.js (v16 or later), npm, and OpenSSL installed on your system.

What should I do if I get a `EADDRINUSE` error on port 3000?

Stop any process using port 3000 or change the port in `server.js`. Use `netstat -ano | findstr :3000` to find the process ID and `taskkill /PID <PID> /F` to terminate it.

Why does the browser show a certificate warning?

Self-signed certificates are not trusted by browsers. For production, use a trusted Certificate Authority like Let’s Encrypt.

How do I configure GitHub OAuth?

Create a GitHub OAuth App, then set `CLIENT_ID`, `CLIENT_SECRET`, `REDIRECT_URI` (https://localhost:3000/auth/callback), and `SESSION_SECRET` in a `.env` file.
