How to use AWS Amplify to Build an Authentication / Login System in a React App Step by Step

[@khandoor7228]

Felix great to see you using React. Please do more with Amplify / AWS and React together. This is my stack and i always learn a lot from you. This is a great full stack would love to see a larger project. I know you like to limit the length of your tutorials but i think this would be worth it!!

[@FelixYu]

thanks for the suggestion mate!!

[@user-hq5zj5xh1l]

great tutorial mate. Had to chnage the following statement> import { Auth, API, Storage, Amplify } from 'aws-amplify';

[@ypapadaki]

Nice video. One fix. Amplify as a default export is deprecated. You now have to import it as a named export import { Amplify } from 'aws-amplify'

[@ebenezerayola3211]

Can you make a video of social sign in

[@tranquillityEnthusiast]

Please do a video on the how we can create CICD for dockerozed nodejs app with codedeploy in aws ec2

[@FelixYu]

i can look into that 👍

[@damienl6411]

Thanks for this. I would like to know how to test an app like this locally. And also how to version control it. Which files should we push to git and which should we not perhaps in a different video. This one was amazing btw. thanks

[@GauravYadav-rv7wx]

Nice Video !!!!!!!!!. Can you tell us also, if there are multiple routes that need the user to be logged in, how can it be achieved?

[@galleon8129]

I love this, but I think there’s a big piece of information missing in 2:49, I’m new to Amplify so I don’t know if you downloaded an Amplify CLI not, if you used Linux terminal how did you SSH into Amplify?

[@subtlecode418]

Thank you for the great and quality content on this. This was a big challenge for days.

[@FelixYu]

Glad that u found it helpful!!

Both aws packages are outdated it seems Showing blank page only Share your code in public repo for reference

[@NotAnAIpromise]

Can you customize the login screen?

[@talha.naseer]

Hey when i do this, i get this error. I think it is because of this line: import Amplify from 'aws-amplify'; in index.js Compiled with problems: × ERROR in ./src/index.js 12:0-17 export 'default' (imported as 'Amplify') was not found in 'aws-amplify' (possible exports: Amplify)

[@josefvassell3605]

Thank you for the content. I have a question did you have AWS amplify setup before you started to develop a login page.

@@FelixYu great stuff bro but I was have having trouble with the Rewrites and Redirects. I get access denied when I refresh the page. I'll buy you some coffee if you can help me figure this out :D

[@alejandroaguilar9581]

Felix, where i can find the created users from the app???

[@Alisa-ym7rr]

Hi Felix, thanks for your video! Do you have anywhere saved the detailed code? I imitate your code but always have some issues, I am not sure if it's config issues and want to check yours. Thank you.

[@depends6688]

thanks mate.

[@LeonardoArangoCifuentes]

hello, what is the best way, if another member of the front, should use this back to customize the styles of the front ?

[@FelixYu]

u can style ur style in the in the index.css file. something like this: :root { --amplify-primary-color: green --amplify-primary-color: blue }

[@lute248]

my AWS student academy account has limitation that doesn't give me authorization to create new IAM user? as a result i'm not able to deploy my app through amplify. Is there a workaround way to deploy my authentication/login react app given this limitation?

[@lute248]

anyone? i'm really stuck with aws cognito

[@walterdiurno8951]

What about if I don't want a "create account", what option should I use in Autenticator ?

[@FelixYu]

u will need to create an account first before u can login right?? what exactly are u tryna do??

[@walterdiurno8951]

@@FelixYu A system where I can create users from cognito backend, not open to everyone that can create an account

[@grantwittenberg9270]

@@walterdiurno8951 Ahh I am here with the same question Walter +1

[@ernestocamurca]

You can disable the Create Account feature for the login. In the AWS management console, go to Cognito, select your your user pool, then, under 'General Settings' / 'Policies' select option 'Only allow administrators to create users' (this deselects option 'Allow users to sign themselves up').

[@menox10]

There is an option to hide the sign up function. You can find it here in the Authenticator component documentation

[@abirbhavdutta5687]

How did you get the .aws folder in your computer?

[@FelixYu]

When u set up ur aws cli with the aws configure command, it generates that directory for u with credentials inside
