## Overview

Job Application Project is a React job portal with user and admin experiences. Users sign up or log in, browse and filter jobs, view job details, submit applications, and track their status; admins manage job postings and review applications. Authentication and application records are stored in browser localStorage, while job data is fetched from a localhost API. The tree contains no backend source, so API internals and its relationship to server/db.json cannot be verified; those are not represented as repository components.

Main entry points: [`client/src/App.jsx`](https://github.com/gayathri-samudrala/jobapplication/blob/main/client/src/App.jsx) (Routes and guards), [`client/src/pages/ApplyJob.jsx`](https://github.com/gayathri-samudrala/jobapplication/blob/main/client/src/pages/ApplyJob.jsx) (Submit application), [`client/src/context/AuthContext.jsx`](https://github.com/gayathri-samudrala/jobapplication/blob/main/client/src/context/AuthContext.jsx) (Authentication state), [`client/src/main.jsx`](https://github.com/gayathri-samudrala/jobapplication/blob/main/client/src/main.jsx) (Client entry)
