7. Connecting MongoDB & Defining Mongoose Schemas

Overview: Connect to MongoDB cluster and enforce strict typing, validation rules, and timestamps.

Concept & Syntax Guide

Mongoose acts as an Object Document Mapper (ODM). Schemas enforce data integrity (type, required, trim, lowercase, custom validators) before documents are written into MongoDB collections.

Hands-On Practice Exercise
