- The web application uses React for the frontend and communicates with a backend API for user authentication. The frontend components are built using functional components and utilize React hooks for managing state and handling form input.
- The Login component handles user login by making a POST request to the backend API with the user's email and password. If the login is successful, a JWT token is returned and stored in the browser's local storage. The user is then redirected to the homepage.
- The Signup component handles user registration by making a POST request to the backend API with the user's first name, last name, email, and password. If the registration is successful, the user is redirected to the login page.
- The optional feature of signing in with Google is commented out in the code but can be enabled by uncommenting the necessary code and providing a valid Google client ID. The responseGoogle function handles the Google sign-in process and makes a POST request to the backend API with the Google token ID. If the sign-in is successful, a JWT token is returned and stored in the browser's local storage. The user is then redirected to the homepage.
