How to Build Secure JWT Authentication in Golang + React.js (Step-by-Step)

Hey devs! 👋

I’ve been working with Golang + React.js for a while, and one of the most repetitive tasks is setting up authentication from scratch—handling JWT tokens, middleware, secure storage, API protection, etc.

So, I built an Auth Kit to simplify the entire process! 🚀 Now, you can set up a fully functional JWT authentication system in just 5 minutes instead of spending hours coding it manually.

🔹 What's Included?
✅ Golang Backend (Gin, JWT, Middleware, GORM)
✅ React.js Frontend (Vite + TailwindCSS + Protected Routes)
✅ Secure API Endpoints with token validation
✅ Ready-to-use setup (just plug & play)
