What are the best practices for authentication in Vue.js with Vue Router?

When implementing authentication in Vue.js with Vue Router, consider using route guards, token storage, and user roles.

Can you explain how route guards work?

Route guards are functions that check if a user is allowed to access a route. You can use 'beforeEach' to implement them.

What about storing tokens securely?

It's best to store tokens in HttpOnly cookies to prevent XSS attacks, rather than in local storage.

How can I manage user roles in my application?

You can manage user roles by defining them in your state management (like Vuex) and using route guards to restrict access.
