StoryBooks is a CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) application that allows users to create and manage their stories. It leverages Express as the framework, MongoDB as the database, and Handlebars as the template engine. The original implementation incorporated Google OAuth for user authentication. This modified version extends the authentication options to include Microsoft OAuth.

• User authentication with both Google OAuth and Microsoft OAuth
• Creation and management of public and private stories
• Addition of new pages to stories
• Persistent storage of user data, stories, and sessions in MongoDB

1. Clone the repository or download the source code.
2. Install Node.js if you haven't already. Visit nodejs.org to download and install Node.js.
3. Open the project in your preferred code editor.
4. Install the project dependencies by running the command npm install in the project's root directory.
5. Create a .env file in the config folder and add the following variables:
   • PORT - Set the desired port for running the application (e.g., 3000).
   • MONGO_URI - Set the MongoDB connection string obtained from MongoDB Atlas.
   • GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID - Set the Google Client ID obtained from the Google Developers Console.
   • GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET - Set the Google Client Secret obtained from the Google Developers Console.
   • MICROSOFT_CLIENT_ID - Set the Microsoft Client ID obtained from the Microsoft Azure portal.
   • MICROSOFT_CLIENT_SECRET - Set the Microsoft Client Secret obtained from the Microsoft Azure portal.
   • MICROSOFT_CALLBACK_URL - Set the callback URL for Microsoft OAuth authentication (e.g., http://localhost:3000/auth/microsoft/callback).
6. Start the application by running the command npm start or npm run dev (for development mode) in the project's root directory.
7. Access the application in your web browser using the specified port (e.g., http://localhost:3000).

Please ensure that you have followed the steps mentioned above and provided the necessary values for the environment variables in the .env file. The Google Client ID and Client Secret are required for Google OAuth authentication, while the Microsoft Client ID, Client Secret, and Callback URL are required for Microsoft OAuth authentication.

Note: This modified version of the StoryBooks app includes both Google OAuth and Microsoft OAuth authentication. The original application and the tutorial were created by Brad Traversy, and I extend my appreciation to him for his exceptional tutorial and guidance throughout this project.
