## The idea behind the example
|
|
|
|
In this example, we authenticate users and store a token in a cookie. The example only shows how the user session works, keeping a user logged in between pages.
|
|
|
|
This example is backend agnostic and uses [isomorphic-unfetch](https://www.npmjs.com/package/isomorphic-unfetch) to do the API calls on the client and the server.
|
|
|
|
The repo includes a minimal passwordless backend built with [Micro](https://www.npmjs.com/package/micro) and it logs the user in with a GitHub username and saves the user id from the API call as token.
|
|
|
|
Session is syncronized across tabs. If you logout your session gets logged out on all the windows as well. We use the HOC `withAuthSync` for this.
|
|
|
|
The helper function `auth` helps to retrieve the token across pages and redirects the user if no token was found.
