  Membriana offers the following functionalities:

• Web-Based Platform: Accessible from any device with an internet connection.
• Member Management: Register, update, and track members.
• Payment Tracking: Record payments, due dates, and payment statuses.
• Automated Billing: Send notifications and reminders for pending payments.
• Pricing Management: Configure different membership types with custom pricing.
• Multi-User Access: Role-based access for admins, operators, and other users.
• Payment Gateway Integration: Connect with online payment platforms.

  User related tables are automatically generated by Identity.EntityFrameworkCore. The AuthenticationController uses Identity's UserManager<AppUser> to manage the login and registration functionalities.

  In frontend controllers, JwtAuthorizationFilter ensures that the endpoints requests have a JWT key in their cookies.

  Then, the JwtCookieHandler checks if there's a JWT token stored in the current request's cookies (using IHttpContextAccessor) and, if it exists, adds it to the Authorization header as a Bearer Token before sending the request to the API.

  In the backend, any endpoint with [Authorize] decodes the token, verifies the signature, checks expiration and returns 401 Unauthorized if any validation fails. The backend makes sure that the authorization is done with JWT, as builder.Services.AddAuthentication().AddJwtBearer() is injected in Program.cs and expects IdentityModel.Tokens.

  Finally, API Filters are used in the API endpoints to ensure that users can only access data belonging to their organization.
