[US-1] Update NavBar Button for GitHub Authentication #23

Closed H-BAHDON closed 11 months ago

H-BAHDON commented 11 months ago

Modify the front-end by updating the NavBar button to redirect to the '/auth/github' endpoint for GitHub authentication.

Subtasks:

Locate the NavBar component or template where the login button is defined.
Update the button's href or onClick event to point to the '/auth/github' endpoint.
Ensure the button visually reflects its new purpose (e.g., change text to "Login with GitHub").
Test the updated button to confirm the redirection to the GitHub authentication endpoint.

Backend Implementation:

Create a new endpoint on the backend for '/auth/github'.
Implement the endpoint using Passport.js and 'passport-github2' to initiate the GitHub OAuth flow.
