A simple proof-of-concept React app using Passport.js for auth on the backend.

Passport Auth with React

Why is this important?

We already know how to do auth with MEN stack apps, but we want to have options of doing auth if we use a framework as well. Because React scripts run on a separate server from the backend, we need to identify what changes should be made to use Passport with React.

What are the Objectives:

  • See how we adjust our usual Passport auth implementation for a React app
  • identify the steps needed to use Passport with React

Where should we be now?

  • Should already have implemented simple auth and/or Passport auth with a MEN stack app
  • Should have a good understanding of hashing and salting as it relates to passwords and auth
  • Should be able to successfully build a basic React app
