Session Management Details 🔐

The session management in this application is implemented using JWT (JSON Web Tokens) for access and refresh tokens, which are stored in cookies. Additionally, users have the ability to view and manage the devices that are currently logged into their account.

  • JWT Access & Refresh Tokens: Securely manage user sessions by issuing access tokens for authentication and refresh tokens for obtaining new access tokens without re-authentication.
  • Device Management: Users can see a list of devices that are currently logged into their account and manage these sessions by logging out from specific devices if needed.
