Django and React Authentication with JWT and HTTP-Only Cookies

This project implements a user authentication system using Django and React. It includes user registration, login, logout, and fetching user data. Authentication is handled using JWT (JSON Web Tokens) and HTTP-only cookies for improved security. The application's frontend is styled using Bootstrap.

The project consists of two directories:

• client: Contains the React application
• server: Contains the Django backend

Task

1. Add an input field for the user's Ethereum wallet address to the registration page. When a user registers an account, this wallet address must be saved to the database.
2. After login, the homepage must show the balance of the user's Ethereum wallet address.

Completed the Task

• User registration with email, password, and Ethereum wallet address
• User login and logout
• Fetching and displaying user data
• Displaying Ethereum wallet balance on the homepage after login

Technical Details

• The backend uses Django REST Framework to handle API requests.
• User authentication is managed using JWT tokens stored in HTTP-only cookies.
• The Ethereum wallet address is stored in the user model in the database.
• The frontend uses React for the user interface and Axios for API calls.
• The Ethereum wallet balance is fetched using a third-party API (implementation details may vary).
