## Description

N-blog is a full-stack JavaScript blogging platform and content management system built with Node.js. It functions as a server-side rendered web application that renders markdown source text into HTML for publishing and displaying articles.

The system includes a markdown blogging engine that enables the creation and management of posts and user comments. It features a integrated user authentication system that handles account registration, secure sign-in, and session management to protect private routes.

The project covers broad capability areas including request routing and middleware pipelines, template-based page composition, and data persistence with cascading deletion for referential integrity. It also incorporates media handling for profile image uploads and observability tools for application logging and page view tracking.

Development automation is supported through API endpoint testing, test coverage analysis, and automatic server restarts during source file changes.
