Reference Authentication Flow with Flutter & Firebase

This forked project has been upgraded to the latest packages.

YouTube video walk-throughs here:

This project shows how to implement a full authentication flow in Flutter, using various Firebase sign-in methods.

It aims to be a reference implementation. Think of it as "authentication done right".

Project goals

This project shows how to:

• use the various Firebase sign-in methods
• build a robust authentication flow
• use appropriate state management techniques to separate UI, logic and Firebase authentication code
• handle errors and present user-friendly error messages
• write production-ready code following best practices

Feel free to use this in your own projects. 😉

NOTE: This project will be kept up to date with the latest packages and Flutter version.

Running the project with Firebase

To use this project with Firebase authentication, some configuration steps are required.

• Create a new project with the Firebase console.
• Add iOS and Android apps in the Firebase project settings.
• On Android, use com.codingwithflutter.firebase_auth_demo_flutter as the package name (a SHA-1 certificate fingerprint is also needed for Google sign-in).
• then, download and copy google-services.json into android/app.
• On iOS, use com.codingwithflutter.firebaseAuthDemo as the bundle ID.
• then, download and copy GoogleService-Info.plist into iOS/Runner, and add it to the Runner target in Xcode.
