How can I implement a secure logout feature in my React app?

To implement a secure logout feature in your React app, you should clear the user's session and token from local storage or cookies.

What if I'm using Redux for state management?

If you're using Redux, you should also dispatch an action to reset the authentication state in your store when logging out.

Can you show me a code example?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

const handleLogout = () => {
  localStorage.removeItem('token');
  dispatch({ type: 'LOGOUT' });
  history.push('/login');
};

This clears the token and redirects the user to the login page.

How do I handle logout on the server side?

On the server side, you should invalidate the user's session or token. This can be done by removing it from your database or marking it as expired.
