Chat gpt assisted in generating code for creating a counter based logic in the case that there were uploaded files had the same file name "if (newPhotoName) { let counter = 0; let photoPath = path.join(__dirname, 'public/images', newPhotoName);

  //checking if there is a file conflict 
  while (await fsPromises.access(photoPath).then(() => true).catch(() => false)) {
    counter++;
    const extension = path.extname(newPhotoName);
    const name = path.basename(newPhotoName, extension);
    newPhotoName = `${name}_${counter}${extension}`;
    photoPath = path.join(__dirname, 'public/images', newPhotoName);
  }
  await fsPromises.writeFile(photoPath, file.buffer);
