In this liveProject series, you’ll add secure Google Sign-In functionality to the API of a news aggregator site. You’ll take on the role of a developer for the ReadBytes website, working to enhance user experience and reduce friction with a social sign-on. Each project in this series is self-contained, letting you pick and choose the skills that are relevant to you.

These projects are designed for learning purposes and are not complete, production-ready applications or solutions.

here's what's included

Project 1 Implement Google Sign-In

In this liveProject, you’ll register your app with Google to generate a sign-in code, then build a basic UI for your login page. You’ll make use of the OpenID Connect Protocol and Google Platform Library, then set up basic HTTP authentication for your API.
