Handling user authentication with Remix

Remix is a versatile full-stack React framework designed to facilitate server rendering, data loading, and routing using the Web Fetch API for efficient page loads and transitions. This tutorial demonstrates how to manage user authentication within a Remix application by building a quote wall app where authenticated users can post and view quotes, while unauthenticated users can only view them. The tutorial covers setting up a Remix app with Tailwind CSS, creating routes and navigation components, and configuring a database using Prisma with SQLite. It guides through implementing user authentication with bcrypt for secure password hashing, creating session helpers, and developing form validation logic. The article emphasizes the importance of protecting routes to ensure that only authenticated users can create new quotes, while unauthenticated users are redirected to a login page. Finally, it suggests exploring further improvements to the application and provides a brief introduction to LogRocket for error tracking and analytics.
