Implement a basic authentication service

Now, let's build a local authentication service that will enable us to demonstrate a robust login form, caching, and conditional navigation concepts based on authentication status and a user's role:

1. Start by installing a JWT decoding library, and for faking authentication, a JWT encoding library:
