## What it is
A full-stack Next.js and MongoDB web application template featuring session-based authentication, user profiles, and social features like posts and comments. It is designed to be simple for learning while remaining applicable to real-world projects, with accompanying explanatory blog posts.

## Use cases
- build a full-stack app with next.js and mongodb
- learn session-based authentication in next.js
- starter template for a social web app with posts and comments
- add email verification and password reset to a next.js app
- deploy a serverless next.js app on vercel with mongodb
- learn how to build user profiles with profile pictures

## When to choose
- you want a simple, minimal Next.js + MongoDB starter without heavy dependencies like Redux or GraphQL
- you need working session-based auth with email verification and password reset out of the box
- you are learning full-stack Next.js development with guided blog posts
- you plan to deploy serverless on Vercel

## When to avoid
- you need OAuth/social login providers like Google or Facebook, which are not implemented
- you prefer a different database than MongoDB and don't want to adapt the data layer
- you want a batteries-included framework with GraphQL, Redux, or SASS
- you need a production-grade, actively developed boilerplate with long-term support
