Further Improvements

TODO: write section with additions over what is presented over the book (if any). Possible ideas:

1. login with some OAuth2.1 server (maybe Google or AAC).
2. routing using Go 1.22 could also be an idea.
3. admin page or roles for notes managements (edit, delete and update)
   • might already be covered by the bool, update this note if needed
   • roles might also be covered by Let'd Go Further but that's ok
4. email verification
