Authentication System
Challenge-based hiring quest with structured evaluation and real project outcomes.

Code-quests is a platform that helps businesses publish projects (called Quests) and ask a community of developers and designers to compete to build the best, highest-quality implementation or design.
In this quest, the goal is to build the authentication system for the Code Quest platform
