Add Authentication System to Website 🔐

[klnamv]

The current website lacks an authentication system, which restricts user personalization and security. Users cannot have personal accounts or manage their sessions effectively.

Improvement Suggestion:

• Implement an authentication system allowing users to create accounts with a username, password, and API key.
• Store user information and session data in a database (options: MongoDB or Postgres).

This is how I see it: After clicking on the "Try it" button, the user should see an authentication window (sign in form).

Sign in form:

Hey @klnamv , I was thinking of few third party options to implement authentication. One such is Firebase, which has quite generous free tier limits, and something I have personally used too. Another option is Passport.js, which is not as convenient as Firebase, but still abstracts a-lot of complexity of authentication and authorisation mechanism. What do you think?

Hey @i-supermario, I think Firebase is a good idea for authentication implementation.

Hey @klnamv I think you could also use something like clerk authentication which is pretty cool I have used it on one of my projects before.
