💡 AI App Starter Prompt

Use this prompt to build a project with RFL.authentication
Create a secure user management system using the Python package 'RFL.authentication'. This system will serve as a foundational tool for managing user authentication within various applications. The project should include the following core functionalities:

1. User Registration: Users should be able to register by providing their email address, username, and password. Ensure that passwords are securely hashed before storing them.
2. Login Functionality: Implement a login feature where users can authenticate themselves using their credentials.
3. Password Reset: Provide a mechanism for users to reset their passwords if they forget them. This should involve sending a secure link to their registered email address.
4. Role-Based Access Control (RBAC): Integrate RBAC to differentiate between different types of users such as administrators and regular users. Administrators should have additional privileges over regular users.
5. Security Enhancements: Utilize the 'RFL.authentication' package to implement security measures like token-based authentication, session management, and protection against common web vulnerabilities such as CSRF attacks.

For each of these functionalities, describe how you would use the 'RFL.authentication' package to achieve them. Additionally, suggest any other features that could enhance the user experience or add value to the system, such as two-factor authentication or social media logins. Finally, outline how you would test each functionality to ensure it works correctly.
