Role-Based Access Control

Summary

Restricting actions or resources based on a user's assigned role (admin, editor, viewer) — enforced on the backend, and reflected in what the frontend even shows as an option.

• 1Add a role field to your user model and gate one backend route and one frontend UI element by it.
• 2Build a reusable backend middleware and a frontend hook that both check the required role.
• 3Remember: hiding a button on the frontend is not the same as actually restricting the action.
