io is not defined, missing import.

You need to update the HTML page (public/index.html) as shown in https://docs.feathersjs.com/guides/basics/authentication.html#browser-authentication. The <script src="/socket.io/socket.io.js"></script> part is specifically important. If the page is running on a different server it needs to be changed to <script src="http://localhost:3030/socket.io/socket.io.js"></script>
