How can I implement email verification in my React app using Firebase?

You can use the react-firebase-hooks library to handle email verification easily. First, ensure you have Firebase set up in your project.

What steps do I need to follow to set it up?

1. Install the necessary packages: firebase and react-firebase-hooks. 2. Initialize Firebase in your app. 3. Use the useSendEmailVerification hook to send verification emails.

Can you show me a code example?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

import { useSendEmailVerification } from 'react-firebase-hooks/auth';
import { auth } from './firebase';

const VerifyEmail = () => {
  const [sendEmailVerification, sending, error] = useSendEmailVerification(auth);

  const handleVerify = () => {
    sendEmailVerification();
  };

  return <button onClick={handleVerify}>Verify Email</button>;
};

What if the user doesn't receive the verification email?

You can advise users to check their spam folder or resend the verification email using the same sendEmailVerification function.
