Build me a task manager app with a login screen and a clean responsive dashboard.

It should let people sign in, then only see the pages they’re allowed to use based on their role, like admin, manager, or user. I want full task management too, so users can create, edit, view, and delete tasks, and also search and filter them by things like status, priority, assignee, project, or a text query.

Please include an admin only page for managing users and roles, plus protected routes so nobody can open pages they shouldn’t. Make it feel polished and easy to use on the browser, and handle authentication securely with tokens. Use a React frontend and a Node, Express, MySQL backend, and set it up so I can run the frontend and server separately. If you need to check current docs or best practices while building it, go ahead and look them up online.
