Can I implement passport js into my back-end express app - node.js

I'm new to node,so this maybe be a silly question but I would like to know if it is possible to implement the api passport js into my back-end express app ?

Yup: here's a tutorial on it: https://blog.risingstack.com/node-hero-node-js-authentication-passport-js/

I have found a good tutorial where I was able to get passport js to work on the back-end

Node - Express 4 csrf

With the dawn of Express 4 connect is no longer a dependancy. I can't find on the express site any new implementation of csrf.
the old way was app.use(express.csrf()); and then add in a middleware function to expose it in the view.
My question is: Am I now forced to include connect as a dependency, or is there something baked into express now that allows for csrf that I am missing?
Or can I just include the source of csrf into my app?
You can install and require csurf for Express 4.

How to mount a Sails.js app as express middleware

I would like to use Sails within a larger express based app. Most node.js MVC frameworks I have worked with you can mount as express middleware. Is this possible with Sails?
I want to do something like:
var express = require('express'),
app = express();
var mySailsApp = require('./mysailsapp');
app.use(mySailsApp);
While there are some active efforts to develop systems that would let Sails be more modularized, there's no way to use a Sails app as Express middleware. Sails works on top of Express, but not the other way around. However, you can use custom Express middleware with Sails--see this answer for an example.
