Fastest way to build a user management system for a Chrome extension?
Hey all - I have an very scrappy version of an extension that is getting decent traction. I want to start asking users to sign up now.
What would be a low lift way to integrate a sign up/login system?
I had worked with Auth0 back in the day but I am not sure if there is even a better way now.
Thanks all
My project ExtensionPay has a user management system you can use! It doesn't matter if you're taking payments or not, you can still use the user management system :)
Thanks, Where is all the user info stored in this case?
You access it from your extension with an API call:
extpay.getUser()Depends on the design of the extension. We use Memberstack. It was pretty easy.
Thanks for the suggestion. I will check it out now.
For initial version, instead of building full blown user management, does "Sign In with Google/Facebook" sufficient for your use case?
Oh yeah, I am all about baby steps. FB and Google sign would be sufficient to test the next steps. :)
Just not sure what would be the easiest implementation? Do I embed in the extension code or redirect users to a webpage or something else
@avanathan how to do "Sign In with Google/Facebook"? Any resources/tutorials will be highly appreciated
@husseinzchi Google has some docs here - https://developers.google.com/identity/sign-in/web
