00:00:00,340 --> 00:00:04,290
Nice work successfully implementing
user authentication in React App

2
00:00:04,290 --> 00:00:06,970
using basic authentication and
React Router.

3
00:00:06,970 --> 00:00:08,510
You can download and
view the source code for

4
00:00:08,510 --> 00:00:11,190
the completed app in the project
files with this course.

5
00:00:11,190 --> 00:00:15,590
Now that you've built a robust client
authentication feature, here are a few

6
00:00:15,590 --> 00:00:20,310
suggestions on what you can do next using
your React App and Express REST API.

7
00:00:20,310 --> 00:00:22,290
You can practice creating other private or

8
00:00:22,290 --> 00:00:25,340
protected routes that
require user authentication.

9
00:00:25,340 --> 00:00:28,470
For example, a user profile,
and settings route.

10
00:00:28,470 --> 00:00:32,990
Expand the Express API by configuring
new routes that renders specific content

11
00:00:32,990 --> 00:00:36,300
to the user, like profile and
settings information, or

12
00:00:36,300 --> 00:00:39,540
customize the app in any way you'd like,
make it your own.

13
00:00:39,540 --> 00:00:43,540
You could connect to a third party
external API, like Google Maps, or

14
00:00:43,540 --> 00:00:45,450
a weather API.

15
00:00:45,450 --> 00:00:49,190
Connect the app to a database,
using the Sequelize ORM, for example.

16
00:00:49,190 --> 00:00:52,979
That way, users can interact with
the database by retrieving custom

17
00:00:52,979 --> 00:00:56,783
content from a route, as well as add,
update, and delete content.

18
00:00:56,783 --> 00:01:00,418
Or consider updating the front end with
your own custom styles and layout,

19
00:01:00,418 --> 00:01:04,710
including making the app mobile friendly
with added accessibility support.

20
00:01:04,710 --> 00:01:07,800
And be sure to share what you create
with the Treehouse community.

21
00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:09,590
Remember, we're here to help, so

22
00:01:09,590 --> 00:01:12,370
if you have questions about
anything covered in this course,

23
00:01:12,370 --> 00:01:15,940
feel free to reach out to other students
in the community or the Treehouse staff.

24
00:01:15,940 --> 00:01:17,370
