Backend changes: - Add PATCH /api/users/me endpoint for profile updates (firstName, lastName, email) - Add PATCH /api/users/me/password endpoint for password change - Email change triggers re-verification flow (emailVerified=false, new verification token/code) - Send verification email automatically on email change - Return new JWT token when email changes (to update emailVerified status) - Add validation for profile update and password change - Create user controller with updateProfile and changePassword functions Frontend changes: - Add ProfilePage with tabbed interface (Profile & Password tabs) - Profile tab: Edit firstName, lastName, email - Password tab: Change password (requires current password) - Add Profile link to navigation bar - Add authAPI.updateProfile() and authAPI.changePassword() functions - Update AuthContext user data when profile is updated - Display success/error messages for profile and password updates Security: - Username cannot be changed (permanent identifier) - Email uniqueness validation - Password change requires current password - Email change forces re-verification to prevent hijacking User flow: 1. User edits profile and changes email 2. Backend sets emailVerified=false and generates new verification tokens 3. Verification email sent to new address 4. User must verify new email to access all features 5. Banner appears until email is verified
