Web-Core & React-SDK: Implement Flow Handler for All UIs

Aby-JS commented 7 months ago

Why

To provide a smooth and robust authentication experience for Corbado users, it is essential to have comprehensive flow handlers. These flow handlers ensure that users go through the various authentication processes, such as email OTP, passkey, third-party authentication, etc., seamlessly and securely.

The flow components are as follows:

Defining the multiple authentication flows supported by the system.
Handling transitions between the different authentication steps.
Comprehensive error management during authentication.
Concluding an authentication flow and initiating a user session once all steps are successfully completed.

TODO

[x] Outline the various authentication flows in Web-Core.
[x] Develop React-SDK methods for initiating and managing these flows from the frontend.
[x] Implement flow transition logic in Web-Core and React-SDK.
[ ] Incorporate comprehensive error handling in both Web-Core and React-SDK.
[ ] Establish flow completion logic in Web-Core.
[ ] Provide methods in React-SDK to finalize and complete the authentication processes.

Acceptance criteria

Successful implementation and execution of the defined authentication flows.
Smooth transitions between authentication steps without glitches or interruptions.
Effective error handling that provides clear feedback to both developers and end-users.
Successful completion of authentication flows, ensuring user authentication and session initiation.

Implementation idea

Collaborate with frontend and backend teams to detail out all authentication flow requirements.
Utilize state management solutions in React-SDK to handle flow transitions effectively.
Create comprehensive error messages and codes in Web-Core to cater to all potential authentication issues.
On successful authentication, ensure generated session data is securely stored and made available through the React-SDK.
