Image upload feature: Add featured images for posts to make the blog visually appealing.
Slug-based SEO-friendly URLs for better search engine optimization.
User roles and access control: Admins vs. regular users.
Flash messages to give feedback after actions like login, creating posts, or deleting content.
A fully styled frontend with Twig templates to make your blog look modern and professional.
