Getting started with Refine, the React-based framework

Refine is a React-based framework designed to facilitate the rapid development of data-heavy applications, leveraging the Ant Design system for a user-friendly interface. It offers built-in functionalities such as routing, authentication, state management, and internationalization, making it ideal for applications like admin panels and dashboards that require processing large volumes of data. The framework supports REST and GraphQL, including Strapi and NestJS CRUD, and provides complete control over the user interface. Refine's hooks, like useCreate, useUpdate, and useDelete, simplify web application integration by enhancing native React hooks, particularly in authentication processes. The framework also supports Google authentication and can integrate with third-party libraries such as Axios and dotenv for handling API requests and secure key management. Refine allows developers to create customizable applications efficiently, demonstrated by building a simple user listing application with a dynamic login page that requires user authentication to access data retrieved from a fake REST API.
