Practical GraphQL - Become a GraphQL Ninja - Preparing the model for authentication

The video tutorial covers extending a user model to include username and password fields, updating dummy data to align with the new model, and implementing password hashing using bcrypt. It explains how to add custom instance methods in SQL Elize and demonstrates the use of async/await for handling promises during password hashing. The tutorial emphasizes the importance of securing passwords by hashing them before database insertion.
