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
