Description
current fastapi server is http only. change this to be https only , enabling it to be more secure
how about the frontend ? add a login screen
benefit : is this is secured , now you can work on a distributed setup with backend on hostA and frontend on hostB , however these 2 hosts must be on the same subnet and not one local and another the cloud or lab

Done means the server is HTTPS-only, the frontend has a login screen, and the backend/frontend can be deployed on separate hosts on the same subnet.
