Access Token and Refresh Tokens | Build Starter Kit for Single Page Apps #3 #dartlang #flutter #apis

We will implement a refresh token along with our access token to be used when issuing our a new access token after the current one expires. We will create a Token service that will generate our token pairs and also persist our refresh tokens in a Redis datastore. We will bootstrap our Redis server by creating a docker compose file, which we will communicate with using the Redis client package. We will also use redis-commander as our UI for viewing the data in our store.

Can you do a flutter supabase tutorial? Supabase is growing in popularity. You can also compare firebase and supabase if you want.

great content, got you server working and even made adjustments, could this serve up my flutter app in a seperate directory? right now I put app.mount('/app/', in there but it shows up a blank page, there is javascript in the source code when i click view source inside the browser, have you had any luck serving flutter apps with shelf_router?

Nice video! I'ts a pity that this redis library isn't null safe, though :(

Wait a minute... Why should I learn to build backend apps with Dart while I can do that with NodeJS that is extremely powerful and has a huge community?!
