Introduction is an open source JavaScript library for building user interfaces in WEB and mobile applications. Currently, React is at version 17 and Meta (formerly Facebook) is the main maintainer of the project. React is an easy to implement, adaptable authentication and authorization platform. Auth0 Prerequisites Before you start, you need to install and configure the tools: git Node.js and npm IDE (e.g. or ) Visual Studio Code WebStorm Getting started Create and configure the account on the Auth0 Let's create the account. Access the site and do steps 1 and 9 of the post to create and configure the account on the Auth0. 1. https://auth0.com/ Authentication using the Auth0 to an Angular application In step 7 of the post above, fill in the field with the URL , fill in the fields , with the URL and click on the button . 2. Allowed Callback URLs http://localhost:3000/react-auth0/profile Allowed Logout URLs Allowed Web Origins http://localhost:3000/react-auth0 Save Changes Create the React application Let's create the application with the React base structure using the tool. 1. create-react-app npx create-react-app react-auth0 --template typescript

Success! Created react-auth0 at /home/rodrigokamada/Development/React/react-auth0
Inside that directory, you can run several commands:

  npm start
    Starts the development server.

  npm run build
    Bundles the app into static files for production.

  npm test
    Starts the test runner.

  npm run eject
    Removes this tool and copies build dependencies, configuration files
    and scripts into the app directory. If you do this, you can’t go back!

We suggest that you begin by typing:

  cd react-auth0
  npm start

Happy hacking! Install and configure the Material UI CSS framework. Do step 2 of the post . 2. Adding the Material UI CSS framework to an React application Install the and libraries. 3. @auth0/auth0-react react-router-dom npm install @auth0/auth0-react react-router-dom Create the component. 4. SignIn touch src/SignIn.tsx Add the lines in the file as below. 5. src/SignIn.tsx import { useAuth0 } from '@auth0/auth0-react'
import Button from '@mui/material/Button';
import Grid from '@mui/material/Grid';

function SignIn() {
  const { loginWithRedirect } = useAuth0();

  return (
    <main style={{ padding: '1rem 0' }}>
      <Grid container>
        <Grid container justifyContent="center">
          <Button variant="contained" onClick={loginWithRedirect}>Sign In</Button>
        </Grid>
      </Grid>
    </main>
  );
}

export default SignIn; Create the component. 6. Profile touch src/Profile.tsx Add the lines in the file as below. 7. src/Profile.tsx import { useAuth0 } from '@auth0/auth0-react'
import Avatar from '@mui/material/Avatar';
import Grid from '@mui/material/Grid';
import TextField from '@mui/material/TextField';

function Profile() {
  const { isAuthenticated, user } = useAuth0();

            <TextField id="email" label="Email" value={user?.email} variant="outlined" fullWidth />
          </Grid>
          <Grid item xs={12} sx={{ m: 1 }}>
            <TextField id="nickname" label="Nickname" value={user?.nickname} variant="outlined" fullWidth />
          </Grid>
        </Grid>
      </Grid>
      }
    </main>
  );
}

export default Profile; Change the file. Import the component and configure the parameter with the Auth0 domain and the parameter with the Auth0 Client ID as below. 8. src/index.tsx Auth0Provider domain clientId import React from 'react';
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import { Auth0Provider } from '@auth0/auth0-react';

    >
      <App />
    </Auth0Provider>
  </React.StrictMode>,
  document.getElementById('root')
); Change the file. Add the menu and the routes in the file as below. 9. src/App.tsx src/Profile.tsx import React from 'react';
