How Route Protection Works

1. User logs in — role is stored in Context API and localStorage
2. Every protected page is wrapped in the ProtectedRoute component
3. If the user is not logged in they are redirected to /login automatically
4. If an employee tries to access an admin-only page they are redirected to /dashboard
5. Admin sees the full AdminSidebar with all routes — employees see the restricted EmployeeSidebar

How to Connect with Spring Boot Backend

1. Build your Spring Boot REST API with endpoints matching the frontend API calls
2. Enable CORS in Spring Boot to allow requests from http://localhost:3000
3. Set the base URL in your Next.js .env.local file as NEXT_PUBLIC_API_URL=http://localhost:8080/api
4. The frontend sends JWT tokens in the Authorization: Bearer token header on every protected request
5. Spring Boot validates the token and returns the appropriate data per role
