Authentication System

The Authentication System is designed as a centralized user identity service that handles login, registration, and access control. It implements real-world authentication workflows such as secure password handling, session management, and OAuth integration.

This project demonstrates how production-ready authentication systems are structured and deployed using modern web technologies.

Key Features

  • Secure user signup and login system
  • Password encryption and validation
  • OAuth social login (Google)
  • Session handling and access control
  • Protected routes for authorized users only
  • Scalable authentication structure
  • Clean and responsive UI
  • Production deployment on custom subdomain

Conclusion

This project strengthened my understanding of authentication logic, backend security, and system design. It reflects how modern applications handle identity and access management at scale and serves as a foundation for integrating authentication into future projects.
