The example login shows Is this intended to hit the live firebase server with a uid of an existing user? Or is it a fake uid that returns mock result? |

@bspksal It really hits Firebase's servers for auth (you can have it hit emulators instead), but the string can be any value as Firebase will just add this as a new Firebsae Auth user with the given UID and no auth provider. This is helpful if you want to associate data in a real database or in the emulators to specific user which you then login as and interact with your application. |
