🔒 Protected Routes in React (Clean Implementation)

Not every page should be accessible to everyone.

Protected routes help ensure that only authenticated users can access pages like Dashboard, Profile, Settings, etc.

✅ Simple and reusable
✅ Redirects unauthenticated users automatically
✅ Common pattern used in production applications

Flow:

User visits /dashboard
↓
Token exists?
↓ ↓
Yes No
↓ ↓
Render Redirect
Dashboard to /login

Login Example:

```js
localStorage.setItem("token", "jwt-token");
navigate("/dashboard");
```

Logout Example:

```js
localStorage.removeItem("token");
navigate("/login");
```

This approach uses React Router's Outlet and Navigate components to keep your routing logic clean and scalable.

💡 Every React developer should know how protected routes work.
