title: Use firebase token authentication with laravel API
body: <p>I have a project in which i have the FE with Angular 2+ and the backend it's with Laravel. I call the APIs to retrieve the necessary data, i use JWT for authentication with Laravel. All works fine there. </p>
  
  <p>So, i want to use the token provided by firebase and authenticate it in laravel as the same way it's done with the middleware that the jwt-auth package with laravel provide. The reason to use firebase it's that makes very easy to login with Google, Twitter, etc.</p>
  
  <p>To verify the token i know that i need to decode the token and check several things in the payload. So my questions are:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li><p>It's only necessary to check the payload data, or something else
  also?</p></li>
  <li><p>There is any package that make it easier to work with this token
      with laravel?</p></li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>If someone knows a good article or video that talks about this, it would be very appreciate it.</p>
