💡 AI App Starter Prompt

Use this prompt to build a project with auth0-python
Create a simple web-based task management application using Flask and integrate it with Auth0 for user authentication and authorization. This application will allow registered users to log in, manage their personal tasks, and view tasks assigned to them. Additionally, administrators will have the ability to manage all users and their tasks.

Key Features:
- User Registration and Login: Implement registration and login functionalities using Auth0. Utilize the 'auth0-python' package to handle user authentication and token validation.
- Task Management: Allow users to create, update, delete, and view their own tasks. Tasks should include details such as title, description, due date, and status (e.g., pending, completed).
- Admin Panel: Provide an admin panel where administrators can view all users and their tasks, edit user roles, and manage tasks for all users.
- Role-Based Access Control (RBAC): Use Auth0's RBAC feature to restrict access to certain parts of the app based on user roles (e.g., regular users can only see their own tasks, while admins can manage all tasks).
- Security Enhancements: Ensure that sensitive information is securely stored and transmitted. Use HTTPS for all requests and ensure proper handling of tokens.

Steps to Build the Application:
1. Set up a new Flask application.
2. Configure Auth0 by setting up an application in your Auth0 account and obtaining necessary credentials (domain, client ID, client secret).
3. Install and configure the 'auth0-python' package to interact with Auth0's API for authentication and management operations.
4. Create routes and views for user registration and login, utilizing the 'auth0-python' package to authenticate users against Auth0.
5. Implement task management features (CRUD operations) for users and ensure that these operations are restricted to the logged-in user only.
6. Develop an admin panel that allows administrators to perform actions like viewing all users, editing user roles, and managing tasks for all users.
7. Integrate role-based access control to ensure that only authenticated users with appropriate roles can access specific features.
8. Test the application thoroughly to ensure all functionalities work as expected and are secure.
