[FEATURE] <Better sign up flow> about defaang HOT 11 CLOSED

• We could have a confirm-email page which a user gets redirected to from /signup on successful signup.
• The confirm-email page would inform the user that a mail was sent to them containing a confirmation link.
• when the user clicks on the link, they would be redirected to the main app dashboard by supabase
• also links to signup and signin pages could be added to the navbar on the homepage

@ykdojo I'd like to give this a try if it hasn't been assigned to anyone yet

I would like to take this one on aswell. Little Idea: Maybe make a section with all the current pages in the README with all their corresponding .tsx files, aslong as we don't have a navbar?

We're using Supabase right now, but that could definitely be an option maybe with NextAuth.

What would be the pros and cons of that approach?

As of I didn't worked much with supabase.

But if I talk about nodemailer, then I think it's a great library to send emails with ease.

Where you can send emails with just some lines of code like 15 - 20 and its fast as well.

The fall back is you can only authenticate the user by email. If you want to add other authentication options like google, GitHub then you have to add them by another method.

Supabase allows us to define the url a user gets redirected to on email confirmation. We can use that to redirect the user back to the part a user sees after signing in. for now it can just redirect to the lndex page which is the default

yea

FYI, for the navbar, I created this separate issue. I think I'm going to work on that one next.

Sounds good! Having a navbar (or any other way of navigation) might be a good solution, also.

I think we should use a package called 'nodemailer', for confirming the mail of users.

What do you think?

I'm not sure what you mean by the main app dashboard by supabase here?

from defaang.

You meant index (/), right?
