Welcome to the first ever Flutter video on this channel.
Today, we'll start from scratch and build a user authentication system using Firebase Google sign in and Firestore.
The UI is nothing special, but this video is important because it will show you how to handle real time streams of data from external sources and update the UI reactively.
If you're new here, like and subscribe, and you can grab the full source code from FireShip IO.
I'd like to start by saying that this video is intermediate level.
So if you're brand new to Flutter, it might seem a little overwhelming.
But don't worry because next week, I have a more gentle introduction plan that's typically for JavaScript and or TypeScript developers.
We're starting from scratch, so the first thing we'll do is run Flutter create from the command line to create a new app.
We can then open up the app in Versus Code, and we'll have some configuration to do for the platforms we wanna use.
In this case, we'll only be setting up Android, But the iOS setup is super easy, so feel free to do that if you're on a Mac.
From here, we'll jump into the Firebase console, click on the Android button, and And then we'll need to set a package ID for our project.
That should be something like com, your company name followed by the app name.
So io.fireship.lessnap in this case.
The next thing we'll wanna do is generate a sign in certificate specifically for Google OAuth.
We can generate it by copying and pasting this command.
I'll link that in the full lesson and then going to the terminal and entering the command.
I'm not sure if this is a problem on my end or if the command is just outdated but it gives me an error if I try to use export cert and list together.
If it works for you, then that's great.
But if not, you'll wanna go in here and take out the list from the command.
And then when prompted for a password, type in Android in all lowercase.
And finally, copy and paste the same command, but this time delete export cert from it.
That should give you an SHA one certificate that you can just copy and paste in there and then click the next step, and that will give us our Google services JSON file.
We can download it and save it in the Android app directory inside of our Flutter project.
Now getting back to Versus Code, we'll go into that Android directory.
It should look something like this and then we'll open up the build Gradle file inside of the app directory.
Inside this file, you'll see the application ID.
We'll wanna switch that to the application ID that we chose on Firebase.
Then down at the very bottom, we will apply the plugin that's required for Google services.
And lastly, we need to go up one level to the Android directory and you'll See another build Gradle file there.
In this one we need to find the dependencies and then add the class path that references the Google services plug in.
Then the final thing we'll do is go into the pubspec YAML and add our actual dependencies for this project.
For a Firebase mobile app, you'll almost always need Firebase core and analytics.
And then we'll also bring in Firestore, Firebase auth, and Google sign in is its own plugin.
And lastly, I'm adding RXDart which is optional but it gives you a lot of power when working with real time streams in Firebase.
And we'll see direct examples of that throughout this lesson.
At this point, let's go ahead and run Flutter run just to make sure we don't have any It's in the console or in the app itself.
That should give us the default Flutter app that looks something like this.
From here, we're going to transform this app into a login button that reacts to the user's authentication state.
In addition, this feature will save any custom data that we want to the Firestore database.
For example, we might want to customize the user profile with a unique username or some other unique data or we might have additional relational data that we need to query based on the user's user ID.
Okay.
So now let's write some code.
First, I'm going into the main Dart file and I'm just going to delete pretty much everything in here.
The only thing I wanna keep is the my app widget just so we have a container to display our button.
So inside the material app, you'll see a body property.
And in that, we can go ahead and set up a child that is a column.
And the reason I'm using a column here is because we can add multiple widgets to it, and they'll just be stacked on top of each other.
So basically, what we're going to do is just flush out our UI inside this widget array.
We're going to need 2 different buttons.
We'll have one to sign in with Google and then one to sign out.
Every material button has an on pressed event handler that we can implement to do something when the user clicks on a button.
Right now it does nothing, but we'll set that up in the next step.
Then we'll go ahead and set up a second material button.
This one will be to log out when the user is authenticated.
It's the exact same widget just with some different coloring and text.
So if we run the app at this point you should see the 2 buttons up here at the top of the view.
If we want to center our buttons we can actually go into the column widget and adjust the main axis this alignment to center.
And that puts our buttons in the middle.
Now it's time to switch gears and talk about the authentication logic.
It's generally a good idea to separate your business logic from your UI or presentation logic.
And that's exactly what we're going to do here by creating a new file called auth.
Dart.
Now Now Flutter is not very opinionated about the way you share global data or handle your state management, and you'll see a lot of examples out there that use Redux or inherited widgets.
But when you're just prototyping, one of the easiest things to do is just expose a global variable.
So that's what we're going to do here by creating an auth class, and then we'll go ahead and instantiate that as our auth service and just have that sit in the global name space.
It's not a true singleton, but we will only instantiate it once and it will live outside of our actual widget tree.
Inside the class itself, we'll start by defining some private members for Firebase and Google sign in.
Then the actual values that will be available to our widgets will all be either observables or streams.
And it's also important that they are multi subscription streams or hot observables.
In Dart, a stream is only able to handle 1 subscription by default, but we want to share these streams in potentially many different widgets globally throughout the app.
So that's an important rule to follow if you're exposing a global stream.
The observable user is the user that we get from Firebase authentication, while the profile is the custom user data that we save about that user in the database.
And lastly, we'll create a subject for the loading state, which is just an observable that we can push new values to manually.
So these 3 streams define our state, and then we'll have our widgets listen to them and then update the UI reactively.
The next thing we'll do is just go over all the methods that are available on service.
Google sign in will be used when the user taps a button and it will take them to their Google account so they can log in and authenticate.
Update user data will update that user's record in Firestore, and sign out will assign the user out of Firebase.
The first thing we'll do is go up here to the constructor and define the user observable.
So by default, Firebase has already given this to us as a stream, so we can just wrap it inside of observable.
And that will change anytime the user signs in or signs out.
Now in order to retrieve the user's profile from Firestore, we first need to know the value of their user ID.
This is where Rx start is going to start making our life a lot easier because we can just use this switch map operator, which will listen to the value of the user observable, Then it will switch to a different observable, in this case, the observable of the Firestore data for that user.
So we can just point to the user's collection, Grab the document with the corresponding user ID, grab the snapshots, and then I'm also going to map the snapshots to their actual data payload just for convenience here.
When the user is not signed in, we're not going to have a user ID.
So in that case, we want to return some observable data from switch map, which we can do with observable just and an empty object.
So that gives us observables we can listen to in the widgets.
Now we just need a way for the user to sign in.
As soon as the user clicks on the Google sign in button, we're going to flip the loading state to Drew.
And we can do that by simply calling add on our loading stream.
Then the next thing we'll do is just follow the steps required to get the user signed in.
So first, we will call the Google sign in method, and that will trigger the sign in process.
Once that's completed, it will give us the user's ID token and auth token.
At this point, the user will be signed in with Google but not Firebase.
But we can easily sign them into Firebase by just taking the tokens and then passing them to the Google sign in method from Firebase auth.
Then we'll update their user data in Firestore, which we'll implement here in the next step, and then we'll flip the loading state to false.
The reason I put this in a separate method is that if you have multiple sign in options, you can reuse this code for each of them.
And, basically, we're just making a reference to the same Firestore document, and then we're calling ref set data with whatever custom data we wanna put in there.
I'm going to add a time stamp of the current date just so we can see that update when we sign in and sign out.
And adding the merge true option will make this Structive update so it won't overwrite any existing user data in that document.
And lastly, we can just call auth sign out to sign out the user.
So that takes care of our business logic for authentication.
Now we can get to the really cool part, which is making Flutter reactive.
We'll look at 2 different ways we can make the UI update when the values in those streams change.
The first one we'll look at is a stateful widget, which works very similar to a React JS component if you're familiar with React.
But first, we'll go into the buttons that we defined earlier and implement their on pressed event handlers.
That's as simple as calling auth service Google sign in and sign out inside of these functions.
At this point, you should be able to sign in to the app with your Google account.
And when you do that, you should also see the data updated in Firestore.
The first thing we'll do is define a new widget called the user profile that extends stateful widget.
The only thing this widget needs to do is call the create state method for the user profile state.
The next step is to define the state, which is the user profile state, and it extends the state class with the user profile that we just defined.
Now this widget can listen to our global streams and then set its own internal state that we can actually show in the UI.
In this demo, I'm just going to be really lazy with the UI, and we'll just show the user profile and the loading state as a string.
Now when you set up listeners on a stream or observable, you usually wanna make sure that the state is initialized, which you can do inside the init date life cycle hook.
So all we have to do here is call the auth service profile listen.
That will set up the subscription, and then that will give us the state from that subscription, and then we'll use it to call set state on the stateful widget.
Set state is important, and it's built into stateful widgets, and it just tells the widget to rerender when it's called.
So you should only use set state to update values on the widget.
All the computation should be done outside of it.
Then we can go ahead and do the exact same thing for the loading state from the auth service, And now the UI for this widget will rerender anytime the values in these streams change.
Now we don't have any UI in this widget yet, so let's go ahead and add that inside of its build function.
Again, I'm being super lazy with the UI here, so I'm just setting up a column that has a container.
Then we'll render out the underlying data as text widgets.
So this is nice for debugging, but obviously not what you'd want in a real app.
When we log in, we should see this object that's the data from Firestore, and then below that, we have false for the loading state.
You'll notice that even though we're logged in, we're still showing both the login button and the logout button.
Instead of doing that in a stateful widget, We can actually do it in a state list widget using a thing called a stream builder.
You'll also notice that it has a lot less complexity and boilerplate code than the stateful widget.
The stream builder is a widget itself that takes 2 arguments.
The first one is the stream to listen to, and then the second one is a function that will return some UI elements based on the state of the stream.
So for our login button, we want to listen to the user observable.
And then if the user's logged in, we'll show the sign out button.
If not, we'll show the sign in with Google button.
So the builder function gives you 2 things to work with, the context and then the snapshot of the stream itself.
In our case, the snapshot will be the user.
So we can see if the user has data, then we know that the user is logged in.
Otherwise, we know the user is logged out.
So we can actually just go and grab the material buttons that we already created, then put them into the corresponding spot in this conditional.
So now whenever the stream emits a new value, it will just Automatically rerender based on this logic in the builder function.
I'm gonna go ahead and wrap things up there.
If this video helped you, please like and Scribe.
And I'm really curious to get your feedback on this video.
My plan is to make a lot more Flutter videos in the future, but it's really based on what you guys wanna see.
Make sure to grab the full source code from FireShip IO.
Thanks Thanks for watching, and I will talk to you soon.

And the reason I'm using a column here is because we can add multiple widgets to it, and they'll just be stacked on top of each other. So basically, what we're going to do is just flush out our UI inside this widget array. We're going to need 2 different buttons. We'll have one to sign in with Google and then one to sign out. Every material button has an on pressed event handler that we can implement to do something when the user clicks on a button. Right now it does nothing, but we'll set that up in the next step. Then we'll go ahead and set up a second material button. This one will be to log out when the user is authenticated. It's the exact same widget just with some different coloring and text. So if we run the app at this point you should see the 2 buttons up here at the top of the view. If we want to center our buttons we can actually go into the column widget and adjust the main axis this alignment to center.
And that puts our buttons in the middle. Now it's time to switch gears and talk about the authentication logic. It's generally a good idea to separate your business logic from your UI or presentation logic. And that's exactly what we're going to do here by creating a new file called auth.
logic
Dart. Now Now Flutter is not very opinionated about the way you share global data or handle your state management, and you'll see a lot of examples out there that use Redux or inherited widgets. But when you're just prototyping, one of the easiest things to do is just expose a global variable. So that's what we're going to do here by creating an auth class, and then we'll go ahead and instantiate that as our auth service and just have that sit in the global name space. It's not a true singleton, but we will only instantiate it once and it will live outside of our actual widget tree. Inside the class itself, we'll start by defining some private members for Firebase and Google sign in.
Then the actual values that will be available to our widgets will all be either observables or streams. And it's also important that they are multi subscription streams or hot observables. In Dart, a stream is only able to handle 1 subscription by default, but we want to share these streams in potentially many different widgets globally throughout the app. So that's an important rule to follow if you're exposing a global stream. The observable user is the user that we get from Firebase authentication, while the profile is the custom user data that we save about that user in the database. And lastly, we'll create a subject for the loading state, which is just an observable that we can push new values to manually. So these 3 streams define our state, and then we'll have our widgets listen to them and then update the UI reactively. The next thing we'll do is just go over all the methods that are available on service. Google sign in will be used when the user taps a button and it will take them to their Google account so they can log in and authenticate. Update user data will update that user's record in Firestore, and sign out will assign the user out of Firebase.

streaming
systems
programming
security
The first thing we'll do is go up here to the constructor and define the user observable. So by default, Firebase has already given this to us as a stream, so we can just wrap it inside of observable. And that will change anytime the user signs in or signs out. Now in order to retrieve the user's profile from Firestore, we first need to know the value of their user ID. This is where Rx start is going to start making our life a lot easier because we can just use this switch map operator, which will listen to the value of the user observable, Then it will switch to a different observable, in this case, the observable of the Firestore data for that user. So we can just point to the user's collection, Grab the document with the corresponding user ID, grab the snapshots, and then I'm also going to map the snapshots to their actual data payload just for convenience here. When the user is not signed in, we're not going to have a user ID. So in that case, we want to return some observable data from switch map, which we can do with observable just and an empty object. So that gives us observables we can listen to in the widgets. Now we just need a way for the user to sign in. As soon as the user clicks on the Google sign in button, we're going to flip the loading state to Drew.
And we can do that by simply calling add on our loading stream. Then the next thing we'll do is just follow the steps required to get the user signed in. So first, we will call the Google sign in method, and that will trigger the sign in process. Once that's completed, it will give us the user's ID token and auth token. At this point, the user will be signed in with Google but not Firebase. But we can easily sign them into Firebase by just taking the tokens and then passing them to the Google sign in method from Firebase auth. Then we'll update their user data in Firestore, which we'll implement here in the next step, and then we'll flip the loading state to false.
google
The reason I put this in a separate method is that if you have multiple sign in options, you can reuse this code for each of them. And, basically, we're just making a reference to the same Firestore document, and then we're calling ref set data with whatever custom data we wanna put in there. I'm going to add a time stamp of the current date just so we can see that update when we sign in and sign out. And adding the merge true option will make this Structive update so it won't overwrite any existing user data in that document. And lastly, we can just call auth sign out to sign out the user. So that takes care of our business logic for authentication. Now we can get to the really cool part, which is making Flutter reactive. We'll look at 2 different ways we can make the UI update when the values in those streams change. The first one we'll look at is a stateful widget, which works very similar to a React JS component if you're familiar with React. But first, we'll go into the buttons that we defined earlier and implement their on pressed event handlers.
That's as simple as calling auth service Google sign in and sign out inside of these functions. At this point, you should be able to sign in to the app with your Google account. And when you do that, you should also see the data updated in Firestore. The first thing we'll do is define a new widget called the user profile that extends stateful widget.
google
The only thing this widget needs to do is call the create state method for the user profile state. The next step is to define the state, which is the user profile state, and it extends the state class with the user profile that we just defined.
Now this widget can listen to our global streams and then set its own internal state that we can actually show in the UI. In this demo, I'm just going to be really lazy with the UI, and we'll just show the user profile and the loading state as a string.
streaming
programming
Now when you set up listeners on a stream or observable, you usually wanna make sure that the state is initialized, which you can do inside the init date life cycle hook.
So all we have to do here is call the auth service profile listen. That will set up the subscription, and then that will give us the state from that subscription, and then we'll use it to call set state on the stateful widget. Set state is important, and it's built into stateful widgets, and it just tells the widget to rerender when it's called.
networking
telecommunications
So you should only use set state to update values on the widget.
All the computation should be done outside of it. Then we can go ahead and do the exact same thing for the loading state from the auth service, And now the UI for this widget will rerender anytime the values in these streams change. Now we don't have any UI in this widget yet, so let's go ahead and add that inside of its build function.
programming
Again, I'm being super lazy with the UI here, so I'm just setting up a column that has a container. Then we'll render out the underlying data as text widgets. So this is nice for debugging, but obviously not what you'd want in a real app. When we log in, we should see this object that's the data from Firestore, and then below that, we have false for the loading state. You'll notice that even though we're logged in, we're still showing both the login button and the logout button. Instead of doing that in a stateful widget, We can actually do it in a state list widget using a thing called a stream builder.
You'll also notice that it has a lot less complexity and boilerplate code than the stateful widget. The stream builder is a widget itself that takes 2 arguments. The first one is the stream to listen to, and then the second one is a function that will return some UI elements based on the state of the stream. So for our login button, we want to listen to the user observable. And then if the user's logged in, we'll show the sign out button.
streaming
programming
audio
visualization
If not, we'll show the sign in with Google button. So the builder function gives you 2 things to work with, the context and then the snapshot of the stream itself. In our case, the snapshot will be the user. So we can see if the user has data, then we know that the user is logged in.
visualization
Otherwise, we know the user is logged out. So we can actually just go and grab the material buttons that we already created, then put them into the corresponding spot in this conditional. So now whenever the stream emits a new value, it will just Automatically rerender based on this logic in the builder function. I'm gonna go ahead and wrap things up there.

Thanks Thanks for watching, and I will talk to you soon.
Welcome to the first ever Flutter video on this channel. Today, we'll start from scratch and build a user authentication system using Firebase Google sign in and Firestore. The UI is nothing special, but this video is important because it will show you how to handle real time streams of data from external sources and update the UI reactively. If you're new here, like and subscribe, and you can grab the full source code from FireShip IO. I'd like to start by saying that this video is intermediate level. So if you're brand new to Flutter, it might seem a little overwhelming. But don't worry because next week, I have a more gentle introduction plan that's typically for JavaScript and or TypeScript developers. We're starting from scratch, so the first thing we'll do is run Flutter create from the command line to create a new app. We can then open up the app in Versus Code, and we'll have some configuration to do for the platforms we wanna use. In this case, we'll only be setting up Android, But the iOS setup is super easy, so feel free to do that if you're on a Mac. From here, we'll jump into the Firebase console, click on the Android button, and And then we'll need to set a package ID for our project. That should be something like com, your company name followed by the app name. So io.fireship.lessnap in this case. The next thing we'll wanna do is generate a sign in certificate specifically for Google OAuth. We can generate it by copying and pasting this command. I'll link that in the full lesson and then going to the terminal and entering the command. I'm not sure if this is a problem on my end or if the command is just outdated but it gives me an error if I try to use export cert and list together. If it works for you, then that's great. But if not, you'll wanna go in here and take out the list from the command. And then when prompted for a password, type in Android in all lowercase. And finally, copy and paste the same command, but this time delete export cert from it. That should give you an SHA one certificate that you can just copy and paste in there and then click the next step, and that will give us our Google services JSON file. We can download it and save it in the Android app directory inside of our Flutter project. Now getting back to Versus Code, we'll go into that Android directory. It should look something like this and then we'll open up the build Gradle file inside of the app directory. Inside this file, you'll see the application ID. We'll wanna switch that to the application ID that we chose on Firebase. Then down at the very bottom, we will apply the plugin that's required for Google services. And lastly, we need to go up one level to the Android directory and you'll See another build Gradle file there. In this one we need to find the dependencies and then add the class path that references the Google services plug in. Then the final thing we'll do is go into the pubspec YAML and add our actual dependencies for this project. For a Firebase mobile app, you'll almost always need Firebase core and analytics. And then we'll also bring in Firestore, Firebase auth, and Google sign in is its own plugin. And lastly, I'm adding RXDart which is optional but it gives you a lot of power when working with real time streams in Firebase. And we'll see direct examples of that throughout this lesson. At this point, let's go ahead and run Flutter run just to make sure we don't have any It's in the console or in the app itself. That should give us the default Flutter app that looks something like this. From here, we're going to transform this app into a login button that reacts to the user's authentication state. In addition, this feature will save any custom data that we want to the Firestore database. For example, we might want to customize the user profile with a unique username or some other unique data or we might have additional relational data that we need to query based on the user's user ID. Okay. So now let's write some code. First, I'm going into the main Dart file and I'm just going to delete pretty much everything in here. The only thing I wanna keep is the my app widget just so we have a container to display our button. So inside the material app, you'll see a body property. And in that, we can go ahead and set up a child that is a column. And the reason I'm using a column here is because we can add multiple widgets to it, and they'll just be stacked on top of each other.

So if we run the app at this point you should see the 2 buttons up here at the top of the view. If we want to center our buttons we can actually go into the column widget and adjust the main axis this alignment to center. And that puts our buttons in the middle. Now it's time to switch gears and talk about the authentication logic. It's generally a good idea to separate your business logic from your UI or presentation logic.

let's
let's
go
go
ahead

and
and
run

just
just
to
to
make

Okay.
okay
So
so
now
now
let's
let's
write
write
some
some
code.
code
First,
first
I'm
i'm
going
going
into
into
the
the
main
main
Dart
dart
file
file
and
and
I'm
i'm
just
just
going
going
to
to
delete
delete
pretty
pretty
much
much
everything
everything
in
in
here.
here
The
the
only
only
thing
thing
I
i
wanna
wanna
keep
keep
is
is
the
the
my
my
app
app
widget
widget
just
just
so
so
we
we
have
have
a
a
container
container
to
to
display
display
our
our
button.
button
So
so
inside
inside
the
the
material
material
app,
app
you'll
you'll
see
see
a
a
body
body
property.
property
And
and
in
in
that,
that
we
we
can
can
go
go
ahead
ahead
and
and
set
set
up
up
a
a
child
child
that
that
is
is
a
a
column.
column
And
and
the
the
reason
reason
I'm
i'm
using
using
a
a
column
column
here
here
is
is
because
because
we
we
can
can
add
add
multiple
multiple
widgets
widgets
to
to
it,
it
and
and
they'll
they'll
just
just
be
be
stacked
stacked
on
on
top
top
of
of
each
each
other.
other
So
so
basically,
basically
what
what
we're
we're
going
going
to
to
do
do
is
is
just
just
flush
flush
out
out
our
our
UI
ui
inside
inside
this
this
widget
widget
array.
array
We're
we're
going
going
to
to
need
need
2
2
different
different
buttons.
buttons
We'll
we'll
have
have
one
one
to
to
sign
sign
in
in
with
with
Google
google
and
and
then
then
one
one
to
to
sign
sign
out.
out
Every
every
material
material
button
button
has
has
an
an
on
on
pressed
pressed
event
event
handler
handler
that
that
we
we
can
can
implement
implement
to
to
do
do
something
something
when
when
the
the
user
user
clicks
clicks
on
on
a
a
button.
button
Right
right
now
now
it
it
does
does
nothing,
nothing
but
but
we'll
we'll
set
set
that
that
up
up
in
in
the
the
next
next
step.
step
Then
then
we'll
we'll
go
go
ahead
ahead
and
and
set
set
up
up
a
a
second
second
material
material
button.
button
This
this
one
one
will
will
be
be
to
to
log
log
out
out
when
when
the
the
user

is
is
authenticated.
authenticated
It's
it's
the
the
exact
exact
same
same

just
just
with
with
some
some
different
different
coloring

and
and

So
so
if
if
we
we
run
run
the
the
app
app
at
at
this
this
point
point
you
you
should
should
see
see
the
the
2
2
buttons
buttons
up
up
here
here
at
at
the
the
top
top
of
of
the
the

If
if
we
we
want
want
to
to
center
center
our
our

we
we
can
can
actually
actually
go
go
into
into
the
the

and
and
adjust

the
the

this

And
and
that
that
puts
puts
our
our
buttons

in
in
the
the
middle.
middle
Now
now
it's
it's
time
time
to
to
switch
switch
gears

and
and
talk
talk
about
about
the
the
authentication
authentication
logic.

It's
it's
generally
generally
a
a
good
good
idea
idea
to
to
separate

your
your

from
from
your
your

or
or

logic
And
and
that's
that's
exactly
exactly
what
what
we're
we're
going
going
to
to
do
do
here
here
by
by
creating
creating
a
a
new
new
file
file
called

Dart.
dart
Now
now
Now
now
Flutter
flutter
is
is
not
not
very
very
opinionated
opinionated
about
about
the
the
way
way
you
you
share
share
global
global
data
data
or
or
handle
handle
your
your
state
state
management,

and
and
you'll
you'll
see
see
a
a
lot
lot
of
of
examples
examples
out
out
there
there
that
that
use
use
Redux

or
or

widgets
But
but
when
when
you're
you're
just
just
prototyping,
prototyping
one
one
of
of
the
the
easiest
easiest
things
things
to
to
do
do
is
is
just
just
expose
expose
a
a
global
global
variable.
variable
So
so
that's
that's
what
what
we're
we're
going
going
to
to
do
do
here
here
by
by
creating
creating
an
an
auth
auth
class,
class
and
and
then
then
we'll
we'll
go
go
ahead
ahead
and
and
instantiate
instantiate
that
that
as
as
our
our
auth
auth
service
service
and
and
just
just
have
have
that
that
sit
sit
in
in
the
the
global
global
name
name
space.
space
It's
it's
not
not
a
a
true
true
singleton,
singleton
but
but
we
we
will
will
only
only
instantiate
instantiate
it
it
once
once
and
and
it
it
will
will
live
live
outside
outside
of
of
our
our
actual
actual
widget
widget
tree.
tree
Inside
inside
the
the
class
class
itself,
itself
we'll
we'll
start
start
by
by
defining
defining
some
some
private
private
members
members
for
for
Firebase
firebase
and
and
Google
google
sign
sign
in.
in
Then
then
the
the
actual
actual
values
values
that
that
will
will
be
be
available
available
to
to
our
our
widgets
widgets
will
will
all
all
be
be
either
either
observables
observables
or
or
streams.
streams
And
and
it's
it's
also
also
important
important
that
that
they
they
are
are
multi
multi
subscription
subscription
streams
streams
or
or
hot
hot
observables.
observables
In
in
Dart,
dart
a
a
stream
stream
is
is
only
only
able
able
to
to
handle
handle
1
1
subscription
subscription
by
by
default,
default
but
but
we
we
want
want
to
to
share
share
these
these
streams
streams
in
in
potentially
potentially
many
many
different
different
widgets
widgets
globally
globally
throughout
throughout
the
the
app.
app
So
so
that's
that's
an
an
important
important
rule
rule
to
to
follow
follow
if
if
you're
you're
exposing
exposing
a
a
global
global
stream.
stream
The
the
observable
observable
user
user
is
is
the
the
user
user
that
that
we
we
get
get
from
from
Firebase
firebase
authentication,
authentication
while
while
the
the
profile
profile
is
is
the
the
custom
custom
user
user
data
data
that
that
we
we
save
save
about
about
that
that
user
user
in
in
the
the
database.
database
And
and
lastly,
lastly
we'll
we'll
create
create
a
a
subject
subject
for
for
the
the
loading
loading
state,
state
which
which
is
is
just
just
an
an
observable
observable
that
that
we
we
can
can
push
push
new
new
values
values
to
to
manually.
manually
So
so
these
these
3
3
streams
streams
define
define
our
our
state,
state
and
and
then
then
we'll
we'll
have
have
our
our
widgets
widgets
listen
listen
to
to
them
them
and
and
then
then
update
update
the
the
UI
ui
reactively.
reactively
The
the
next
next
thing
thing
we'll
we'll
do
do
is
is
just
just
go
go
over
over
all
all
the
the
methods
methods
that
that
are
are
available
available
on
on
service.
service
Google
google
sign
sign
in
in
will
will
be
be
used
used
when
when
the
the
user
user
taps
taps
a
a
button
button
and
and
it
it
will
will
take
take
them
them
to
to
their
their
Google
google
account
account
so
so
they
they
can
can
log
log
in
in
and
and
authenticate.
authenticate
Update
update
user
user
data
data
will
will
update
update
that
that
user's
user's
record
record
in
in
Firestore,
firestore
and
and
sign
sign
out
out
will
will
assign
assign
the
the
user
user
out
out
of
of
Firebase.
firebase
The
the
first
first
thing
thing
we'll
we'll
do
do
is
is
go
go
up
up
here
here
to
to
the
the
constructor
constructor
and
and
define
define
the
the
user
user
observable.
observable
So
so
by
by
default,
default
Firebase
firebase
has
has
already
already
given
given
this
this
to
to
us
us
as
as
a
a
stream,
stream
so
so
we
we
can
can
just
just
wrap
wrap
it
it
inside
inside
of
of
observable.
observable
And
and
that
that
will
will
change
change
anytime
anytime
the
the
user
user
signs
signs
in
in
or
or
signs
signs
out.
out
Now
now
in
in
order
order
to
to
retrieve
retrieve
the
the
user's
user's
profile
profile
from
from
Firestore,
firestore
we
we
first
first
need
need
to
to
know
know
the
the
value
value
of
of
their
their
user
user
ID.
id
This
this
is
is
where
where
Rx
rx
start
start
is
is
going
going
to
to
start
start
making
making
our
our
life
life
a
a
lot
lot
easier
easier
because
because
we
we
can
can
just
just
use
use
this
this
switch
switch
map
map
operator,
operator
which
which
will
will
listen
listen
to
to
the
the
value
value
of
of
the
the
user
user
observable,
observable
Then
then
it
it
will
will
switch
switch
to
to
a
a
different
different
observable,
observable
in
in
this
this
case,
case
the
the
observable
observable
of
of
the
the
Firestore
firestore
data
data
for
for
that
that
user.
user
So
so
we
we
can
can
just
just
point
point
to
to
the
the
user's
user's
collection,
collection
Grab
grab
the
the
document
document
with
with
the
the
corresponding
corresponding
user
user
ID,
id
grab
grab
the
the
snapshots,
snapshots
and
and
then
then
I'm
i'm
also
also
going
going
to
to
map
map
the
the
snapshots
snapshots
to
to
their
their
actual
actual
data
data
payload
payload
just
just
for
for
convenience
convenience
here.
here
When
when
the
the
user
user
is
is
not
not
signed
signed
in,
in
we're
we're
not
not
going
going
to
to
have
have
a
a
user
user
ID.
id
So
so
in
in
that
that
case,
case
we
we
want
want
to
to
return
return
some
some
observable
observable
data
data
from
from
switch
switch
map,
map
which
which
we
we
can
can
do
do
with
with
observable
observable
just
just
and
and
an
an
empty
empty
object.
object
So
so
that
that
gives
gives
us
us
observables
observables
we
we
can
can
listen
listen
to
to
in
in
the
the
widgets.
widgets
Now
now
we
we
just
just
need
need
a
a
way
way
for
for
the
the
user
user
to
to
sign
sign
in.
in
As
as
soon
soon
as
as
the
the
user
user
clicks
clicks
on
on
the
the
Google
google
sign
sign
in
in
button,
button
we're
we're
going
going
to
to
flip
flip
the
the
loading
loading
state
state
to
to
Drew.
drew
And
and
we
we
can
can
do
do
that
that
by
by
simply
simply
calling
calling
add
add
on
on
our
our
loading
loading
stream.
stream
Then
then
the
the
next
next
thing
thing
we'll
we'll
do
do
is
is
just
just
follow
follow
the
the
steps
steps
required
required
to
to
get
get
the
the
user
user
signed
signed
in.
in
So
so
first,
first
we
we
will
will
call
call
the
the
Google
google
sign
sign
in
in

The

And,
and
basically,
basically
we're
we're
just
just
making
making

then
then
we're

just
just
so
so
we
we

so
that

Now
now
we
we
can
can
get
get
to
to
the
the
really
really
cool
cool
part,
part
which
which
is
is
making
making

We'll
we'll
look

The
the
first
first
one
one
we'll
we'll
look
look
at
at
is
is
a

But
but
first,
first
we'll
we'll
go

into
into
the
the

that
we
we

That's
that's

At
at
this
this
point,

you
you
should

And
and
when
when
you
you
do
do
that,
that
you
you
should
should
also
also
see

the
the

The
the
first
first
thing
thing
we'll
we'll
do
do
is
is
define
define
a
a
new
new
widget

called

that
that

The
the
only

The
the
next
next
step
step
is
is
to
to
define
define
the
the
state,

which
which
is
is
the

and
it

that
that
we
we
just
just
defined.
defined
Now
now
this
this
widget
widget
can
can
listen
listen
to
to
our
our
global
global
streams
streams
and
and
then
then
set
set
its
its
own
own
internal

state

that
that
we
we
can
can
actually
actually
show

In
in
this
this
demo,
demo
I'm
i'm
just
just
going
going
to
to
be
be
really
really
lazy
lazy
with
with
the
the
UI,
ui
and
and
we'll
we'll
just
just
show
show
the
the
user
user
profile

and
and
the
the
loading
loading
state

as
as
a
a

Now
now
when
when
you
you
set
set
up
up

on
on
a
a

or
or

you
you
usually

that
that
the

So
so
all
all
we
we
have
have
to
to
do
do
here
here
is
is
call
call
the
the

That
that
will
will
set
set
up
up
the
the

and
and
then
then
that
that
will
will
give
give
us
us
the
the
state

from
from
that
that
subscription,
subscription
and
and
then
then
we'll
we'll
use
use
it
it
to
to
call
call
set

on
on
the
the

Set

is
is
important,

and
and
it's
it's
built
built

into
stateful

and
and
it
it
just
just
tells

the
the

So
so
you
you
should
should
only
only
use
use
set

to
to
update

on
on

All
all
the
the
computation

Then
then
we
we
can
can
go
go
ahead

and
and
do
do
the
the
exact

same
same
thing
thing
for
for
the
the
loading

from
from
the
the

And
and
now
now
the
the
UI

for
for
this
this
widget

will
will
rerender

anytime

the
the

Now
now
we
we
don't
don't
have
have
any
any
UI

in
in
this
this

yet,
yet
so
so
let's
let's
go
go
ahead

and
and
add

that
that
inside
inside
of
of
its
its
build

Again,
again
I'm
i'm
being
being
super
super
lazy
lazy
with
with
the
the

so
so
I'm
i'm
just
just
setting
setting
up
up
a
a

that
that
has

Then
then
we'll
we'll
render

the
the

So
so
this
this
is
is
nice
nice
for
for
debugging,
debugging
but
but
obviously
obviously
not
not
what
what
you'd
you'd
want
want
in
in
a
a
real

app.
app
When
when
we
we
log
log
in,
in
we
we
should
should
see
see
this
this
object

that's
that's
the
the
data

from
from
Firestore,
firestore
and
and
then
then
below
below
that,
that
we
we
have
have
false

for
for
the
the

You'll
you'll
notice
notice
that
that
even
even
though
though
we're
we're
logged

we're
we're
still
still
showing
showing
both

Instead

of
of
doing
doing
that
that
in
in
a
a

We
we
can
can
actually
actually
do
do
it
it
in
in
a
a
state

list

using
using
a
a

called

a
a

You'll
you'll
also
also
notice
notice
that
that
it
it
has
has
a
a
lot
lot
less
less
complexity

and
and
boilerplate

than
than
the
the

widget
The
the
stream
stream
builder
builder
is
is
a
a
widget
widget
itself
itself
that
that
takes
takes
2
2
arguments.
arguments
The
the
first
first
one
one
is
is
the
the
stream
stream
to
to
listen
listen
to,
to
and
and
then
then
the
the
second
second
one
one
is
is
a
a
function
function
that
that
will
will
return

some
some
UI

based
on
on
the
the
state

of
of
the
the

stream
So
so
for
for
our
our
login
login
button,
button
we
we
want
want
to
to
listen
listen
to
to
the
the
user
user
observable.
observable
And
and
then
then
if
if
the
the
user's
user's
logged
logged
in,
in
we'll
we'll
show
show
the
the
sign

If
if
not,
not
we'll
we'll
show
show
the
the

with
with

So
so
the
the
builder
builder
function
function
gives
gives
you
you
2
2
things
things
to
to
work
work
with,
with
the
the
context

and
and
then
then
the
the

itself
In
in
our
our
case,
case
the
the
snapshot
snapshot
will
will
be
be
the
the
user.
user
So
so
we
we
can
can
see
see
if
if
the
the
user
user
has
has
data,
data
then
then
we
we
know
know
that
that
the
the
user
user
is
is
logged
logged
in.
in
Otherwise,
otherwise
we
we
know
know
the
the
user
user
is
is
logged
logged
out.
out
So
so
we
we
can
can
actually
actually
just
just
go
go
and
and
grab
grab
the
the
material
material
buttons
buttons
that
that
we
we
already
already
created,
created
then
then
put
put
them
them
into
into
the
the
corresponding
corresponding

in
in
this
this
conditional.

So
so
now
now
whenever
whenever
the
the
stream
stream
emits
emits
a
a
new
new
value,
value
it
it
will
will
just
just
Automatically
automatically
rerender

based
based
on
on
this
this
logic

in
in
the
the

I'm
i'm

The Flutter app is designed to use as an intermediate for developers to create a sign-in certificate, generate a sign-in certificate, and add the required plugin to Flutter app. Flutter app is used to transform an app into a login button and save custom data, and code a new widget to update the UI reactively. The process of setting up a second material button and updating user data is discussed, along with the use of multiple streams to handle subscriptions and the switch map operator to update user data. The speakers also explain the process of updating the loading state and updating the loading state, and provide information on signing in and updating user data in Firwork.
