Discussion on: Authenticate users with firebase and react.

[Arne Pedersen]

Wow, that's fantastic. I'm looking forward to hear what you find.

I can see that some people recommend useEffect and something called onAuthStateChanged, like so:

useEffect(() => {
   const unsub = firebase.auth().onAuthStateChanged((user) => {
      user ? setUser(user) : setUser(null);
    });
    return () => {
      unsub();
    };
  });
  return user;
};

I guess this is using the stored data in the indexedDB(?), but if you would consider this as a viable option - how would you recommend integrating this with the context? If you could comment on this as well, it would be really awesome!
