    HI Shristi! First of all, thanks so much for making these tutorials. They are extremely helpful and well curated. Secondly, I was wondering how or even if it was possible with meanjs to get rid of the first, last name, and email requirements to signup? I’m just aiming to use only the username and password to signup.

      Hey Daniel – anything is possible! 🙂

      Removing email will impact things like ‘forgot my password’. First name/last name are normally concatenated into ‘display name’, so you’ll also need to re-factor parts of the UI.

      It’s also the case that when you’re dealing with apps that cater to people and organisations, that some of these fields aren’t relevant. It’s very possible to change things up, it’s just a bit of work.

      I would recommend that you start by having a look at passport.js http://passportjs.org/guide/ to understand how authentication works. Then try and identify the parts of the mean stack that align to the passport authentication. Once you’re comfortable with how it works, then you can start pulling bits out.

    I am following along your tutorials. Thank you so much. I plan on using meanJS for a webapp I am making. I have quick question. The signup and signin pages that are styled with bootstrap look great until they are expanded wide in which case the input fields scrunch to the right side of the white box we created. How do I fix this?

      Thanks for checking out the videos! There may be an issue with the cols, check that your code looks something like this:
      Signin:

      <section class="row" data-ng-controller="AuthenticationController">
          <div class="col-xs-offset-1 col-xs-10 col-md-offset-4 col-md-4 login-form-bg">
              <h3 class="text-center">Login</h3>
              <form data-ng-submit="signin()" class="signin form-horizontal" autocomplete="off">
      

      Signup:

      <section class="row" data-ng-controller="AuthenticationController">
      	<div class="col-xs-offset-1 col-xs-10 col-md-offset-4 col-md-4 login-form-bg">
              <h3 class="text-center">Sign up</h3>
      		<form name="userForm" data-ng-submit="signup()" class="signin form-horizontal" novalidate autocomplete="off">
      

      I have also created a sample of the 30 day mean app with media queries which fixes similar button spacing css issues here: https://bossable.selz.com/ (instructions here: https://bossable.com/download/) note that this is a paid download.
