Persistent User Sessions with Real-time State Management (UserContest)

[SamparkBhol]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Currently, the UserContext implementation in Design Deck lacks persistence and real-time state management, causing several frustrating issues:

• Users lose their session state on page refresh
• No way to track active collaborators in real-time
• Missing user preferences between sessions
• No indication of who is currently editing which element
• Session state is lost when network connectivity drops

Example scenario: I'm frustrated when working on a collaborative design and I can't see which elements other users are currently editing, leading to conflicting changes. Additionally, having to log in again after a page refresh breaks the creative flow.

Describe the solution you'd like

1. Persistent Session Management:
2. Real-time Collaboration State
3. Offline state management with sync on reconnection

Describe alternatives you've considered

Redux Persistence

• Pros: Built-in persistence solutions
• Cons: Additional bundle size, complexity for simple state

Server-Side Sessions

• Pros: More secure, centralized control
• Cons: Higher latency, more server load

Browser Storage Only

• Pros: Simple implementation
• Cons: No real-time capabilities, sync issues

Additional context Performance target: < 100ms for real-time updates Storage requirements: < 1MB per session
