API Usage Instructions

User Registration

To register a new user, send a POST request to /register with the following JSON data:

    {
        "username": "your_username",
        "email": "your_email",
        "password": "your_password"
    }
    
 Example: curl -X POST http://localhost:5000/register -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"username": "example", "email": "example@example.com", "password": "example123"}'
    

User Login

To log in, send a POST request to /login with the JSON data containing your username and password:

    {
        "username": "your_username",
        "password": "your_password"
    }
    

You will receive a JWT token in the response. Copy this token to use in the next step.

Access Protected Resource

To access the protected resource, send a GET request to /protected with the JWT token in the Authorization header:

    Authorization: Bearer your_jwt_token
    

Example using cURL:

    curl -X GET http://localhost:5000/protected -H "Authorization: Bearer your_jwt_token"
    

Remember to replace your_username, your_password, and your_jwt_token with actual values.
