| + | Now, it's the time to add authentication to our website. | ||
| + | |||
| + | * Use a server-side ''session'' to store the user's state (e.g., an ''authenticated'' bool + ''username'' string keys). | ||
| + | * Don't forget to set a ''secret_key'' for the session, otherwise it won't work! | ||
| + | * Write the Flask functions for ''/login'' and ''/logout'' with the appropriate checks / actions. | ||
| + | * You can either use the included ''login.html'' template page, or roll out your own! | ||
| + | * Check out the input names inside the ''<form>''! | ||
| + | * Hint: you can also set the ''authenticated'' variable inside the Jinja template to conditionally display the user's status. | ||
| + | * You can use a Flask [[https://flask.palletsprojects.com/en/3.0.x/templating/#context-processors|context processor]] to avoid needless code duplication; | ||
| + | * //Alternative//: the ''session'' is readily available inside Jinja2 templates! | ||
