Thank you so much @di3n0
Your code seems nothing wrong and looks good. Only that since it's on your repository, We're not able to run directly - but that's fine for such a small piece.
I'll also wait for my teammates @HarshP4585 and @Br0wnHammer to check (Download your code and test) as well

Problem
The frontend container was failing to connect to the backend (502 Bad Gateway) because
127.0.0.1inside a container refers to the container itself, not the backend service.Solution
Updated the Nginx
proxy_passto use the Docker Compose service nameverifywise_backend_1instead oflocalhostor127.0.0.1. This allows Docker's internal DNS to correctly route the traffic.Testing
Verified locally that the login request at
http://localhost:8080/loginno longer returns a 502 error and correctly communicates with the backend API.
