Product manager(Prodexa)

Prodexa is officially live! After weeks of development, the dashboard now fully supports role-based access, letting managers handle products, sales, and sub-users, while employees have a streamlined view of only what they need. Products can be added, searched, and updated with live stock tracking, low-stock alerts, and accurate pricing with discounts and VAT. Sales are tied to customers and automatically update stock, and the database persists all data reliably. User management is secure, with password validation and session-based access, and the front-end ensures smooth input validation and role-specific views. All major bugs are fixed, including duplicate users, employee product visibility, and sale updates.Any suggestions are welcome.
