Admin Overview
Overview of the Super Admin panel in the Next.js Firebase kit
The Super Admin was released in the version 0.6.0.
It allows your administrators to manage your users and organizations - such as:

- Viewing an organization's members
- Banning or Disabling users
- Impersonating users
Accessing the Super Admin
To access the super admin, you need to navigate to the path /admin. If you're using the emulator, you can do so using the test@makerkit.dev account, which is set to having a super admin role.
You can also find the link in the profile dropdown of users with admin privileges.
