This is a sample implementation of the Corbado React.js package and Corbado Node.js SDK being integrated into a web application built with Hono on the backend and React.js on the frontend.

File structure

• frontend: Separate directory for the Vue.js frontend
• frontend/.env.example: Example file for environment variables
• frontend/src/pages: Contains all pages used in the frontend
• frontend/src/app.tsx: Contains configuration like providers and routes
• frontend/src/context/user.tsx: Global store for user data from our own backend
• backend: Separate directory for the Hono backend
• backend/.env.example: Example file for environment variables
• backend/src/app.ts: Configuration file for the Hono app
• backend/src/utils: Collection of utility functions, e.g. helper functions for authentication
• backend/src/routes: Directory configuring the routes for the app
• backend/src/middleware: Middleware, e.g. for authentication
• backend/src/db: Database configuration and queries

Setup

Prerequisites

Please follow the steps in Getting started to create and configure a project in the Corbado developer panel.

You need to have Node and npm installed to run it.

Configure environment variables

Use the values you obtained in Prerequisites to configure the following variables inside a .env file you create in frontend and backend directories respectively:

Backend

The backend needs an api secret to authenticate with the Corbado backend API.

CORBADO_PROJECT_ID=pro-XXX
CORBADO_API_SECRET=corbado1_XXX
CORBADO_FRONTEND_API=https://{$CORBADO_PROJECT_ID}.frontendapi.cloud.corbado.io
CORBADO_BACKEND_API=https://backendapi.cloud.corbado.io

Frontend

The frontend needs the project ID and the backend base URL.

VITE_CORBADO_PROJECT_ID=pro-XXX
VITE_BACKEND_BASE_URL=http://localhost:3001

Usage

Run the project locally

Run the following command in the root directory

(cd backend && npm install)
(cd frontend && npm install)

to install all dependencies.

Finally, you can run the project locally with the provided start script or individually for frontend and backend.

Using the start script

./start.sh

Running frontend and backend individually

In one terminal session, run the following command in the frontend directory:

npm run dev

In another terminal session, run the following command in the backend directory:

npm run dev
