"Want recruiters attention ?"
Do you think this will be enough when the recruiters want to see some skills in React/Angular/Vue ? We know a lot of job requirements state this thing among other things.
For me, using the same project, in order to enhance impression for them, I may replace all related codes in front end with codes written in React + Bootstrap 4.
As for backend :

  1. I will use mySQL, with or without ORM, instead of MongoDB.
  2. Beside Express, I will probably try Hapi too. So there can two code versions : one written with Express, the other with Hapi. One thing that I like in your approach is that you use MVC pattern, although only model and controller. I am quite familiar with this architecture pattern, because in my current real project (not in github), I use PHP + Laravel. I am relatively new in Node.js, and actually still learning, so maybe I will write this Node.js project in github. Of course I will try it locally before deployment.

Thanks for sharing your idea and approach in creating a portfolio.
