How to Authenticate with Firebase and Google for Expo React Native Apps using Google-Signin plugin

Video Description

Hi everyone! Today I'm showing you how to add Google authentication to your expo react native apps using the google-signin config plugin. I will be doing this via Google directly, with Firebase. This is the latest method for authenticating with Google, if you're interested in past methods you can view my prior videos on Google auth for Expo react native apps. I will also show you how to use eas secrets to securely store your google service json and infoplist files, which are required by the config plugin. Additionally, I will show you how to change from an app.json file to an app.config.js file so you can access the environment variables. If you're interested in an example without firebase, using Google directly then check out this video: https://youtu.be/T-zTZn_xRBM My code for this is available on GitHub: https://github.com/chelseafarley/expo-google-signin-firebase And you can find full documentation here: https://docs.expo.dev/guides/google-authentication/ You’ve clearly come here to learn and a free audible trial allows you to increase your learning potential in situations where you may be hands free like at the gym or on your commute.

I have been working commercially full time since 2014 and have been in various positions from graduate developer to tech lead to solution architect. I'm a full stack developer with a lot of experience in C# and Javascript but my passion is for mobile development; specifically native iOS development and cross platform using React Native. I always have many things on the go and am always trying out a new side hustle and failing at it; perhaps you can learn from my mistakes!
