As a user, I want to be able to remain logged in for more than a day.

Currently, the JWT expiration is set to 24hours. To avoid token expiration and logging out of an active user, a token refresher is required. This will function in a way that if a user has not interacted with the application with their account in the past 7 days, they will need to log back in. Otherwise, the token will be refreshed. Additionally, when the user's token is expired, this is not handled in the application and the unauthorized API calls simply lead to a non functional app. When a token is expired, the user should be redirected to the login page, stating that the session has ended.

NOTE: Considering the low priority of #76 and #77, #244 will be prioritized and will be completed independently.

• Implement token refresher API #76 Implement a token refresher API
• Integrate token refresher API in frontend #77 Integrate token refresher in frontend
• Handle expired token in the app & investigate session management #244 handle expired token in app & Investigating token refreshing & session management

[SP: Iteration 11 - 3 SP]
[Priority: 76 & 77 Low, 244 High]
[Risk: low]
