I've started researching and implementing server server side sessions, user authentication and a user accounts database into the YouTube Descriptions Updater. Its taken me a while but I'd like to share what I've just recently learned about security and how web applications handle multiple users. I'm hoping to create another video which takes an in depth look at the code and authentication flow in implementation. In this video I tried to share the theory behind web security and I started playing around with the code.
