Code Highlights

User Registration Route:

@auth_routes.route('/register', methods=['GET', 'POST'])
def register():
    if request.method == 'POST':
        email = request.form['email']
        password = request.form['password']
        name = request.form['name']

        try:
            response = cognito_client.sign_up(
                ClientId=Config.COGNITO_APP_CLIENT_ID,
                Username=email,
                Password=password,
                UserAttributes=[
                    {'Name': 'email', 'Value': email},
                    {'Name': 'name', 'Value': name},
                    {'Name': 'given_name', 'Value': name}
                ]
            )
            flash('User registered successfully! Please confirm your email.', 'success')
            return redirect('/verify')
        except Exception as e:
            flash(f"Error during sign-up: {str(e)}", 'danger')

    return render_template('register.html')
