Feature Description

Add a bookmark (favorite) option to each note in the Notes section, allowing users to mark important or frequently referenced notes. These bookmarks will be stored in localStorage (or user profile if logged in) and will persist even after page reloads.

Users can then toggle between all notes and bookmarked notes, improving navigation and content prioritization.

Use Case

Users often want to highlight specific notes for quick access later (e.g., key points, tips, or ideas).

As the number of notes grows, it's difficult to find specific notes again without a bookmarking system.

Helps users create a personalized subset of notes they care about the most.

Benefits

Better user experience by enabling quick access to saved/important notes.

Persistence of bookmarks using localStorage ensures the data remains across sessions.

Simple implementation with minimal overhead using React state and localStorage.

Opens doors for future enhancements like "Sort by Bookmarked", "Export Bookmarked Notes", or syncing with user account.
