Architecture

examples/frontend-only/
└── Vite + React + @authcore/react mode="api"

• Points to a configurable external API URL via VITE_API_URL
• Token stored in localStorage
• Works with any backend via response transformers

Setup

cd examples/frontend-only
cp .env.example .env
# Set VITE_API_URL to your API base URL

pnpm install
pnpm dev

When to Use

• You already have a deployed API (AuthCore or custom)
• You want to build a frontend against a shared staging API
• You want to test the React SDK without running a local backend

Connecting to a Custom Backend

If your backend is not AuthCore-based, use the transformer props to adapt the response shapes. See Custom Backend Integration for full examples.
