- It also covers setting up React and Tailwind CSS in Astro, creating components using React, and implementing server actions for data fetching and custom logic.
- The tutorial explains creating layouts for reusability, implementing authentication with auth-astro package for login and registration, and handling user sessions.
- It covers creating dynamic routes for product listings, detailed product views, admin dashboard, and product update page for authorized users.
- The tutorial further details implementing route protection using middleware, ensuring only admin users access admin pages while redirecting unauthorized users.
- Overall, the tutorial provides a comprehensive guide to integrating authentication and authorization, building dynamic components, and protecting routes in Astro.
