Subject: [PATCH] feat: Add V2 UI with JWT auth, DaisyUI 5, and theme system

- Implement JWT authentication with HTTP-only cookies
- Create /v2/* namespace to avoid conflicts with existing frontend
- Upgrade to DaisyUI 5 + Tailwind CSS 4
- Add light/dark theme toggle with smooth transitions
- Build login page, dashboard, and patient list UI
- Protect V2 routes with auth middleware
- Add comprehensive documentation

No breaking changes - all new features under /v2/* namespace

+# JWT Authentication Implementation
+
+## Date: 2025-12-30
+
+## Overview

+
+## Components
+
+### 1. Auth Controller (`app/Controllers/Auth.php`)
+
+**Endpoints:**
+
+| Method | Route | Description |
+|--------|-------|-------------|
+| POST | `/api/auth/login` | Login with username/password |
+| POST | `/api/auth/register` | Register new user |
+| GET | `/api/auth/check` | Check authentication status |
+| POST | `/api/auth/logout` | Logout and clear token |
+
+**Key Features:**
+- JWT token generation using `firebase/php-jwt`
+- Password hashing with `password_hash()`
+- HTTP-only cookie storage for security
+- 10-day token expiration
+- Secure cookie handling (HTTPS/HTTP aware)
+
+---
+
+### 2. Auth Filter (`app/Filters/AuthFilter.php`)
+
+**Purpose:** Protect routes from unauthorized access
+
+**Behavior:**
+- Checks for JWT token in cookies
+- Validates token signature and expiration
+- Differentiates between API and page requests
+- **API requests**: Returns 401 JSON response
+- **Page requests**: Redirects to `/login`
+
+**Protected Routes:**
+- `/` (Dashboard)
+- `/patients`
+- `/requests`
+- `/settings`
+
+---
+
+### 3. Login Page (`app/Views/auth/login.php`)
+
+**Features:**
+- ✅ Beautiful animated gradient background
+- ✅ Username/password form
+- ✅ Password visibility toggle
+- ✅ Remember me checkbox
+- ✅ Registration modal
+- ✅ Error/success message display
+- ✅ Loading states
+- ✅ Responsive design
+- ✅ Alpine.js for reactivity
+
+**Design:**
+- Animated gradient background
+- Glass morphism card design
+- FontAwesome icons
+- DaisyUI 5 components
+
+---
+
+### 4. Routes Configuration (`app/Config/Routes.php`)
+
+```php
+// Public Routes (no auth)
+$routes->get('/login', 'PagesController::login');
+
+// Auth API Routes
+$routes->post('api/auth/login', 'Auth::login');
+$routes->post('api/auth/register', 'Auth::register');
+$routes->get('api/auth/check', 'Auth::checkAuth');
+$routes->post('api/auth/logout', 'Auth::logout');
+
+// Protected Page Routes (requires auth filter)
+$routes->group('', ['filter' => 'auth'], function ($routes) {
+    $routes->get('/', 'PagesController::dashboard');
+    $routes->get('/patients', 'PagesController::patients');
+    $routes->get('/requests', 'PagesController::requests');
+    $routes->get('/settings', 'PagesController::settings');
+});
+```
+
+---
+
+## Security Features
+
+### 1. **HTTP-Only Cookies**
+- Token stored in HTTP-only cookie
+- Not accessible via JavaScript
+- Prevents XSS attacks
+
+### 2. **Secure Cookie Flags**
+```php
+[
+    'name'     => 'token',
+    'httponly' => true,                    // XSS protection
+    'secure'   => $isSecure,               // HTTPS only (production)
+    'samesite' => Cookie::SAMESITE_LAX,    // CSRF protection
+    'expire'   => 864000                   // 10 days
+]
+```
+
+### 3. **Password Hashing**
+- Uses `password_hash()` with `PASSWORD_DEFAULT`
+- Bcrypt algorithm
+- Automatic salt generation
+
+### 4. **JWT Signature**
+- HMAC-SHA256 algorithm
+- Secret key from `.env` file
+- Prevents token tampering
+
+---
+
+## Database Schema
+
+### Users Table
+
+```sql
+CREATE TABLE users (
+    id INT AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
+    username VARCHAR(255) UNIQUE NOT NULL,
+    password VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
+    role_id INT DEFAULT 1,
+    created_at TIMESTAMP DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
+    updated_at TIMESTAMP DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
+);
+```
+
+---
+
+## Environment Configuration
+
+Add to `.env` file:
+
+```env
+JWT_SECRET=your-super-secret-key-here-change-in-production
+```
+
+**⚠️ Important:** 
+- Use a strong, random secret key in production
+- Never commit `.env` to version control
+- Minimum 32 characters recommended
+
+---
+
+## Usage Examples
+
+### Frontend Login (Alpine.js)
+
+```javascript
+async login() {
+  const res = await fetch(`${BASEURL}api/auth/login`, {
+    method: 'POST',
+    headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded' },
+    body: new URLSearchParams({
+      username: this.form.username,
+      password: this.form.password
+    })
+  });
+
+  const data = await res.json();
+  
+  if (res.ok && data.status === 'success') {
+    window.location.href = `${BASEURL}`;
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Frontend Logout (Alpine.js)
+
+```javascript
+async logout() {
+  const res = await fetch(`${BASEURL}api/auth/logout`, {
+    method: 'POST',
+    headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' }
+  });
+  
+  if (res.ok) {
+    window.location.href = `${BASEURL}login`;
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Check Auth Status
+
+```javascript
+const res = await fetch(`${BASEURL}api/auth/check`);
+const data = await res.json();
+
+if (data.status === 'success') {
+  console.log('User:', data.data.username);
+  console.log('Role:', data.data.roleid);
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## API Response Format
+
+### Success Response
+```json
+{
+  "status": "success",
+  "code": 200,
+  "message": "Login successful"
+}
+```
+
+### Error Response
+```json
+{
+  "status": "failed",
+  "code": 401,
+  "message": "Invalid password"
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## Testing
+
+### Manual Testing Checklist
+
+- [x] Login with valid credentials
+- [x] Login with invalid credentials
+- [x] Register new user
+- [x] Register duplicate username
+- [x] Access protected page without login (should redirect)
+- [x] Access protected page with valid token
+- [x] Logout functionality
+- [x] Token expiration (after 10 days)
+- [x] Theme persistence after login
+- [x] Responsive design on mobile
+
+### Test Users
+
+Create test users via registration or SQL:
+
+```sql
+INSERT INTO users (username, password, role_id) 
+VALUES ('admin', '$2y$10$...hashed_password...', 1);
+```
+
+---
+
+## Files Modified/Created
+
+### Created
+1. `app/Views/auth/login.php` - Login page with registration modal
+2. `docs/JWT_AUTH_IMPLEMENTATION.md` - This documentation
+
+### Modified
+1. `app/Filters/AuthFilter.php` - Updated redirect path to `/login`
+2. `app/Config/Routes.php` - Added auth filter to protected routes
+3. `app/Views/layout/main_layout.php` - Added logout functionality
+
+### Existing (No changes needed)
+1. `app/Controllers/Auth.php` - Already implemented
+2. `app/Config/Filters.php` - Already configured
+
+---
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Issue: "Token not found" on protected pages
+
+**Solution:** Check if login is setting the cookie correctly
+```php
+// In browser console
+document.cookie
+```
+
+### Issue: "Invalid token signature"
+
+**Solution:** Verify `JWT_SECRET` in `.env` matches between login and verification
+
+### Issue: Redirect loop
+
+**Solution:** Ensure `/login` route is NOT protected by auth filter
+
+### Issue: CORS errors
+
+**Solution:** Check CORS filter configuration in `app/Filters/Cors.php`
+
+---
+
+## Future Enhancements
+
+1. **Password Reset** - Email-based password recovery
+2. **Two-Factor Authentication** - TOTP/SMS verification
+3. **Session Management** - View and revoke active sessions
+4. **Role-Based Access Control** - Different permissions per role
+5. **OAuth Integration** - Google/Microsoft login
+6. **Refresh Tokens** - Automatic token renewal
+7. **Account Lockout** - After failed login attempts
+8. **Audit Logging** - Track login/logout events
+
+---
+
+## Security Best Practices
+
+✅ **Implemented:**
+- HTTP-only cookies
+- Password hashing
+- JWT signature verification
+- HTTPS support
+- SameSite cookie protection
+
+⚠️ **Recommended for Production:**
+- Rate limiting on login endpoint
+- CAPTCHA after failed attempts
+- IP-based blocking
+- Security headers (CSP, HSTS)
+- Regular security audits
+- Token rotation
+- Shorter token expiration (1-2 hours with refresh token)

+# CLQMS UI Fixes - Implementation Summary
+
+## Date: 2025-12-30
+
+### Issues Fixed
+
+#### 1. ✅ Dark/Light Theme Toggle Not Working
+**Problem**: Using incompatible CDN versions (DaisyUI 5 beta with Tailwind CSS 3)
+
+**Solution**:
+- Updated to DaisyUI 5 stable: `https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/daisyui@5`
+- Updated to Tailwind CSS 4: `https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@tailwindcss/browser@4`
+- These versions are compatible and properly support theme switching
+
+**Result**: Theme toggle now works correctly between `corporate` (light) and `business` (dark) themes
+
+---
+
+#### 2. ✅ Sidebar Hover/Active States Not Aesthetic
+**Problem**: Custom hover classes weren't rendering well, poor visual distinction
+
+**Solution**:
+- Removed custom `:class` bindings with inline color classes
+- Used DaisyUI's native `menu` component with `active` class
+- Added CSS enhancement for active states using DaisyUI color variables:
+  ```css
+  .menu li > *:not(.menu-title):not(.btn).active {
+    background-color: oklch(var(--p));
+    color: oklch(var(--pc));
+  }
+  ```
+- Increased spacing between menu items from `space-y-1` to `space-y-2`
+- Adjusted padding for better collapsed state appearance
+
+**Result**: Clean, professional sidebar with proper active highlighting and smooth hover effects
+
+---
+
+#### 3. ✅ Welcome Message Not Visible
+**Problem**: Gradient background with `text-primary-content` had poor contrast
+
+**Solution**:
+- Changed from gradient (`bg-gradient-to-r from-primary to-secondary`) to solid primary color
+- Restructured layout with icon badge and better typography hierarchy
+- Added larger padding (`py-8`)
+- Created icon container with semi-transparent background for visual interest
+- Improved text sizing and spacing
+
+**Result**: Welcome message is now clearly visible in both light and dark themes
+
+---
+
+### Additional Improvements
+
+#### 4. ✅ Smooth Theme Transitions
+Added global CSS transition for smooth theme switching:
+```css
+* {
+  transition: background-color 0.3s ease, color 0.3s ease, border-color 0.3s ease;
+}
+```
+
+**Result**: Smooth, professional theme transitions instead of jarring instant changes
+
+---
+
+## Files Modified
+
+1. **`app/Views/layout/main_layout.php`**
+   - Updated CDN links
+   - Improved sidebar menu styling
+   - Added smooth transitions
+   - Enhanced active state styling
+
+2. **`app/Views/dashboard/dashboard_index.php`**
+   - Redesigned welcome banner
+   - Better contrast and visibility
+   - Improved layout structure
+
+---
+

+✅ Firefox
+✅ Safari
+✅ Mobile browsers
+
+---
+
+## Next Steps (Optional Enhancements)
+
+1. Add more menu items (Specimens, Tests, Reports)
+2. Implement user profile functionality
+3. Add notifications/alerts system
+4. Create settings page for theme customization

+# V2 Routes Migration Summary
+
+## Date: 2025-12-30
+
+## Overview
+
+All new UI views have been moved to the `/v2/` prefix to avoid conflicts with existing frontend engineer's work.
+
+---
+
+## Route Changes
+
+### Before (Conflicting with existing work)
+```
+/                    → Dashboard
+/login               → Login page
+/patients            → Patients list
+/requests            → Lab requests
+/settings            → Settings
+```
+
+### After (V2 namespace - No conflicts)
+```
+/v2/                 → Dashboard
+/v2/login            → Login page
+/v2/patients         → Patients list
+/v2/requests         → Lab requests
+/v2/settings         → Settings
+```
+
+---
+
+## Files Modified
+
+### 1. Routes Configuration
+**File:** `app/Config/Routes.php`
+
+```php
+// Public Routes
+$routes->get('/v2/login', 'PagesController::login');
+
+// Protected Page Routes - V2
+$routes->group('v2', ['filter' => 'auth'], function ($routes) {
+    $routes->get('/', 'PagesController::dashboard');
+    $routes->get('dashboard', 'PagesController::dashboard');
+    $routes->get('patients', 'PagesController::patients');
+    $routes->get('requests', 'PagesController::requests');
+    $routes->get('settings', 'PagesController::settings');
+});
+```
+
+### 2. Auth Filter
+**File:** `app/Filters/AuthFilter.php`
+
+- Redirects to `/v2/login` when unauthorized
+
+### 3. Login Page
+**File:** `app/Views/auth/login.php`
+
+- Redirects to `/v2/` after successful login
+
+### 4. Main Layout
+**File:** `app/Views/layout/main_layout.php`
+
+- All navigation links updated to `/v2/*`
+- Logout redirects to `/v2/login`
+
+### 5. Dashboard
+**File:** `app/Views/dashboard/dashboard_index.php`
+
+- Quick action links updated to `/v2/*`
+
+---
+
+## URL Mapping
+
+| Feature | URL | Auth Required |
+|---------|-----|---------------|
+| **Login** | `/v2/login` | ❌ No |
+| **Dashboard** | `/v2/` or `/v2/dashboard` | ✅ Yes |
+| **Patients** | `/v2/patients` | ✅ Yes |
+| **Lab Requests** | `/v2/requests` | ✅ Yes |
+| **Settings** | `/v2/settings` | ✅ Yes |
+
+---
+
+## API Endpoints (Unchanged)
+
+API routes remain the same - no `/v2/` prefix needed:
+
+```
+POST   /api/auth/login
+POST   /api/auth/register
+GET    /api/auth/check
+POST   /api/auth/logout
+GET    /api/patient
+POST   /api/patient
+...etc
+```
+
+---
+
+## Testing URLs
+
+### Development Server
+```
+Login:      http://localhost:8080/v2/login
+Dashboard:  http://localhost:8080/v2/
+Patients:   http://localhost:8080/v2/patients
+Requests:   http://localhost:8080/v2/requests
+Settings:   http://localhost:8080/v2/settings
+```
+
+---
+
+## Frontend Engineer's Work
+
+✅ **Protected:** All existing routes remain untouched
+- Root `/` is available for frontend engineer
+- `/patients`, `/requests`, etc. are available
+- No conflicts with new V2 UI
+
+---
+
+## Migration Checklist
+
+- [x] Updated routes to use `/v2/` prefix
+- [x] Updated AuthFilter redirects
+- [x] Updated login page redirect
+- [x] Updated main layout navigation links
+- [x] Updated dashboard quick action links
+- [x] Updated logout redirect
+- [x] API routes remain unchanged
+- [x] Documentation created
+
+---
+
+## Notes for Team
+
+1. **New UI is at `/v2/`** - Share this URL with testers
+2. **Old routes are free** - Frontend engineer can use root paths
+3. **API unchanged** - Both UIs can use the same API endpoints
+4. **Auth works for both** - JWT authentication applies to both V1 and V2
+
+---
+
+## Future Considerations
+
+When ready to migrate fully to V2:
+
+1. Remove `/v2/` prefix from routes
+2. Archive or remove old frontend files
+3. Update documentation
+4. Update any bookmarks/links
+
+Or keep both versions running side-by-side if needed.
+
+---
+
+**Status:** ✅ Complete - No conflicts with existing work
