Real-Time Collaboration Project using OPAL

This project demonstrates a real-time collaboration application using React and OPAL (Open Policy Administration Layer). It includes dynamic policy management, a backend service, and integrates with OPAL for policy enforcement.

• opal-server: OPAL server setup using Docker Compose.
• data-source-service: Node.js service providing user data.
• notification-service: Node.js service handling notifications.
• backend: Node.js service interacting with OPAL to enforce policies.

Features ✨

• User Management: Add, edit, delete, and view users with different roles.
• Task Management: Create, update, delete, and view tasks.
• Real-Time Collaboration: Multiple users can interact with the tasks simultaneously.
• Dynamic Policy Management: Uses OPAL to enforce real-time policies based on user roles and permissions.
