🚀 Summary of Work Done
This PR establishes the core WebSocket infrastructure for real-time features and secures it using JWT authentication middleware. It addresses both the server setup and connection security requirements.
Socket.io Server Integration (#23): Initialized and attached a Socket.io server instance to the existing Express HTTP server in backend/src/server.ts. Implemented structural connection/disconnection event logging.
JWT Authentication Middleware (#24): Created backend/src/middlewares/socketAuth.ts to intercept incoming Socket.io handshakes, extract tokens, and verify identities against the JWT secret before allowing the connection.
🛠️ Technical Implementation Details
Architecture: Adheres to the strict layered architecture, using production-ready TypeScript types and structured error handling.
Security: Invalid, expired, or missing tokens explicitly reject the incoming socket handshake, preventing unauthorized real-time access.
Environment: Relies directly on configured .env credentials; no inline mocks or hardcoded data sources were used.
