ℹ️ Description

This issue focuses on improving API integration and implementing features for dynamic interaction with posts and comments. Updates include connecting new endpoints for like, dislike, and post fetching, ensuring real-time updates in the UI, and refining backend-driven updates for comment management.

🎯 Tasks

Like & Dislike Integration

• Connect the like and dislike endpoints to the frontend.
• Ensure proper token-based authentication for like and dislike actions.
• Dynamically update the UI to reflect the user's interaction:
  • Highlight liked (red) and disliked (blue) states using conditional CSS classes.

Post Fetching

• Integrate new post-fetching endpoints for:
  • The home feed.
  • Individual post pages.
• Test and validate data synchronization between the frontend and backend.

Comment Management

• Implement comment-delete functionality to handle:
  • Deletion of parent and child comments using the backend cascade deletion feature.
• Remove redundant frontend logic for child comment management.

Bug Fixes

• Fix any discrepancies related to fetching posts for the home feed and individual post pages.
