Developer Builds Role-Based React Task Dashboard Using Context API and localStorage
A developer built EMS, an admin and employee task management app, to practice React state management without a backend. Persistence is handled entirely by localStorage, with no Express server or database involved. A single AuthProvider manages login state, user role, and task data, and admin and employee dashboards are rendered as separate component trees. The author isolated storage behind a utility module so the backend could be swapped later without changing the dashboards, and noted the approach isn't suited to multi-user or multi-device use. They invited feedback on whether the Context setup would hold up if a third role were added.
