On login, store the timestamp along with the token. Add a isTokenStillValid function that checks if it has been more than x hrs since the token was generated. Read x from creds.js now, add this function before very request

Make a request module that exports a custom version of axios with heads to all hooks / components making requests. E.g: a module that exports

Design Step

• Tech stack being used: ReactJS
• Changed /login route, bug fixes in validTill.
• Changing all the axios requests and replacing through a wrapper function of getWithLogin() and postWithLogin().
• The wrapper functions check whether the token is valid or not, if not, it redirects to login page.
• Changed all the files where the user data is is being accessed using localStorage.
