Summary
Set up user registration and login for the web app. This will serve as the foundation for all user-specific functionality.
Motivation
We’ll need authenticated users to store personal data, preferences, and manage sessions. This feature also helps test database integration and request handling.
Proposed Implementation
- Framework: Flask (or FastAPI, if async support is preferred)
- Database: SQLite (for now), with migration support
- Authentication: JWT-based or session cookie–based system
Acceptance Criteria
Example Sketch
@app.post("/register")
def register():
data = request.json
hashed = bcrypt.hashpw(data["password"].encode(), bcrypt.gensalt())
user = User(username=data["username"], password=hashed)
db.session.add(user)
db.session.commit()
return jsonify({"message": "User created"}), 201
