How can I implement secure cookies in Express.js?

To implement secure cookies in Express.js, you can use the cookie-parser middleware and set the secure flag.

What does the secure flag do?

The secure flag ensures that cookies are only sent over HTTPS, enhancing security.

Can you show me a code example?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

const express = require('express');
const cookieParser = require('cookie-parser');

const app = express();
app.use(cookieParser());

app.get('/set-cookie', (req, res) => {
    res.cookie('name', 'value', { secure: true });
    res.send('Cookie is set!');
});

app.listen(3000, () => console.log('Server running on port 3000'));
