User Authentication Page using React & Supabase

The course is designed to teach you how to create a robust, secure, and scalable authentication system using React and Supabase. This system replaces traditional PHP sessions and is more robust, secure, and scalable.

Supabase, an open-source alternative to Firebase, is used in this course. It allows you to create frontends without having to worry about repeated things like authentication and database backup, maintenance, and security. You can start using Supabase with their Free Tier immediately, which is a great deal without having to pay anything

Throughout the course, you will learn how to secure user-generated information before inserting it into the database, use JavaScript to implement JSON Web Tokens (JWT), update tokens periodically for a smooth user experience, manage the browser's integrated sessionStorage feature, and make fetch() requests to React pages to get data stored in Supabase tables.

The course is designed to be hands-on, with step-by-step instructions allowing you to build a system and understand these topics in depth. You will have the opportunity to work along with the code and check the provided resource files for reference.

The course is ideal for those who want to focus on frontend and provide the best possible experience for their clients without having to worry about backend database management and authentication systems. It introduces you to the concept of "no-backend" and serverless web development, where the backend is cloud-based and managed for you automatically. This is a growing trend in web development, moving away from managing your own backend servers.

By the end of the course, you'll have a thorough understanding of the philosophy of Supabase and you would be able to dive even deeper into your particular use case. This is supposed to be the first step in your journey towards managed backends. This is not a comprehensive guide to everything. Take this first step and the rest of the stuff will be much, much easier for you.
