+# FirebaseUI for SwiftUI
+
+FirebaseUI for SwiftUI is a library built on top of Firebase Authentication that provides modern, SwiftUI-first sign-in flows for your app.
+
+FirebaseUI for SwiftUI provides the following benefits:
+
+- Opinionated default UI: add a complete sign-in flow with `AuthPickerView`.
+- Customizable: use the built-in flow, render the default buttons in your own layout, or build a fully custom experience with `AuthService`.
+- Anonymous account linking: optionally upgrade anonymous users instead of replacing them.
+- Account management: built-in flows for sign-in, sign-up, password recovery, email link sign-in, reauthentication, and account management.
+- Multiple providers: email/password, email link, phone authentication, Apple, Google, Facebook, Twitter, and generic OAuth/OIDC providers.
+- Modern auth features: built-in support for multi-factor authentication (MFA) and async/await APIs.
+
+## Before you begin
+
+FirebaseUI authentication is now delivered as Swift Package Manager packages for SwiftUI apps.
+
+1. Add Firebase to your Apple project by following the [Firebase iOS setup guide](https://firebase.google.com/docs/ios/setup).
+2. In Xcode, choose **File > Add Package Dependencies...**
+3. Add `https://github.com/firebase/FirebaseUI-iOS`
+4. Select `FirebaseAuthSwiftUI` and any provider packages you want to use:
+   - `FirebaseAppleSwiftUI`
+   - `FirebaseGoogleSwiftUI`
+   - `FirebaseFacebookSwiftUI`
+   - `FirebasePhoneAuthSwiftUI`
+   - `FirebaseTwitterSwiftUI`
+   - `FirebaseOAuthSwiftUI`
+5. Make sure your app targets iOS 17 or later.
+
+Then configure Firebase when your app launches:
+
+```swift
+import FirebaseAuthSwiftUI
+import FirebaseCore
+import SwiftUI
+
+class AppDelegate: NSObject, UIApplicationDelegate {
+  func application(
+    _ application: UIApplication,
+    didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]? = nil
+  ) -> Bool {
+    FirebaseApp.configure()
+    return true
+  }
+}
+
+@main
+struct YourApp: App {
+  @UIApplicationDelegateAdaptor(AppDelegate.self) var appDelegate
+
+  var body: some Scene {
+    WindowGroup {
+      ContentView()
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## Set up sign-in methods
+
+Before you can sign users in, enable the providers you want to support in **Authentication > Sign-in method** in the Firebase console.
+
+### Email address and password
+
+Enable the **Email/Password** provider in the Firebase console.
+
+Add email sign-in to your `AuthService`:
+
+```swift
+ let authService = AuthService()
+  .withEmailSignIn()
+```
+
+### Email link authentication
+
+To use passwordless email link sign-in, configure `ActionCodeSettings` and pass it into `AuthConfiguration`.
+
+```swift
+let actionCodeSettings = ActionCodeSettings()
+actionCodeSettings.handleCodeInApp = true
+actionCodeSettings.url = URL(string: "https://yourapp.firebaseapp.com")
+
+guard let bundleID = Bundle.main.bundleIdentifier else {
+  fatalError("Missing bundle identifier for email link authentication setup.")
+}
+
+actionCodeSettings.setIOSBundleID(bundleID)
+
+let configuration = AuthConfiguration(
+  emailLinkSignInActionCodeSettings: actionCodeSettings
+)
+
+let authService = AuthService(configuration: configuration)
+  .withEmailSignIn()
+```
+
+You must also:
+
+1. Enable **Email link (passwordless sign-in)** in the Firebase console.
+2. Add the link domain to **Authorized domains**.
+3. If you build custom views, call `authService.handleSignInLink(url:)` when the link opens your app.
+
+### Apple
+
+To use Sign in with Apple:
+
+1. Enable **Apple** in the Firebase console.
+2. Add the **Sign in with Apple** capability in Xcode.
+3. Follow the Firebase guide for [Sign in with Apple on Apple platforms](https://firebase.google.com/docs/auth/ios/apple).
+
+Then register the provider:
+
+```swift
+ let authService = AuthService()
+  .withAppleSignIn()
+```
+
+### Google
+
+To use Google Sign-In:
+
+1. Enable **Google** in the Firebase console.
+2. Follow the Firebase guide for [Google Sign-In on Apple platforms](https://firebase.google.com/docs/auth/ios/google-signin).
+3. Add your `REVERSED_CLIENT_ID` from `GoogleService-Info.plist` to **URL Types** in your Xcode target.
+
+Then register the provider:
+
+```swift
+ let authService = AuthService()
+  .withGoogleSignIn()
+```
+
+### Facebook
+
+To use Facebook Login:
+
+1. Enable **Facebook** in the Firebase console and add your Facebook App ID and App Secret.
+2. Follow Facebook's iOS SDK setup instructions.
+3. Add `fb{your-app-id}` to **URL Types** in your Xcode target.
+4. Add `FacebookAppID` and `FacebookDisplayName` to `Info.plist`.
+5. Enable Keychain Sharing in Xcode.
+
+Then register the provider:
+
+```swift
+ let authService = AuthService()
+  .withFacebookSignIn()
+```
+
+### Phone number
+
+To use phone authentication:
+
+1. Enable **Phone** in the Firebase console.
+2. Configure APNs for your app.
+3. Enable Push Notifications in Xcode.
+4. Add your Firebase **Encoded App ID** as a URL scheme for reCAPTCHA fallback.
+
+Phone auth also needs the APNs token and reCAPTCHA URL handlers shown in `Handle provider callbacks` below. Add those methods to the same `AppDelegate` you use for `FirebaseApp.configure()`.
+
+Then register the provider:
+
+```swift
+ let authService = AuthService()
+  .withPhoneSignIn()
+```
+
+### Twitter
+
+To use Twitter Login:
+
+1. Enable **Twitter** in the Firebase console.
+2. Configure the provider credentials in Firebase.
+
+Then register the provider:
+
+```swift
+ let authService = AuthService()
+  .withTwitterSignIn()
+```
+
+### Generic OAuth and OIDC providers
+
+FirebaseUI also supports built-in OAuth providers such as GitHub, Microsoft, and Yahoo, as well as custom OIDC providers configured in Firebase Authentication.
+
+```swift
+ let authService = AuthService()
+  .withOAuthSignIn(OAuthProviderSwift.github())
+  .withOAuthSignIn(OAuthProviderSwift.microsoft())
+  .withOAuthSignIn(OAuthProviderSwift.yahoo())
+```
+
+For custom OIDC providers, configure the provider first in Firebase Authentication, then create an `OAuthProviderSwift` with your provider ID and button configuration.
+
+### Handle provider callbacks
+
+If you use Google Sign-In, Facebook Login, phone authentication, or email link flows, merge the following imports and methods into the same `AppDelegate` you use for `FirebaseApp.configure()`.
+
+```swift
+import FacebookCore
+import FirebaseAuth
+import GoogleSignIn
+import UIKit
+
+class AppDelegate: NSObject, UIApplicationDelegate {
+  func application(
+    _ application: UIApplication,
+    didRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithDeviceToken deviceToken: Data
+  ) {
+    #if DEBUG
+    Auth.auth().setAPNSToken(deviceToken, type: .sandbox)
+    #else
+    Auth.auth().setAPNSToken(deviceToken, type: .prod)
+    #endif
+  }
+
+  func application(
+    _ app: UIApplication,
+    open url: URL,
+    options: [UIApplication.OpenURLOptionsKey: Any] = [:]
+  ) -> Bool {
+    if Auth.auth().canHandle(url) {
+      return true
+    }
+
+    if ApplicationDelegate.shared.application(
+      app,
+      open: url,
+      sourceApplication: options[.sourceApplication] as? String,
+      annotation: options[.annotation]
+    ) {
+      return true
+    }
+
+    return GIDSignIn.sharedInstance.handle(url)
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## Sign in
+
+To start the FirebaseUI sign-in flow, create an `AuthService`, register the providers you want, and pass it into `AuthPickerView`.
+
+### Swift
+
+```swift
+import FirebaseAppleSwiftUI
+import FirebaseAuthSwiftUI
+import FirebaseGoogleSwiftUI
+import SwiftUI
+
+struct ContentView: View {
+  let authService: AuthService
+
+  init() {
+    let configuration = AuthConfiguration(
+      shouldAutoUpgradeAnonymousUsers: true,
+      tosUrl: URL(string: "https://example.com/terms"),
+      privacyPolicyUrl: URL(string: "https://example.com/privacy")
+    )
+
+    authService = AuthService(configuration: configuration)
+      .withEmailSignIn()
+      .withAppleSignIn()
+      .withGoogleSignIn()
+  }
+
+  var body: some View {
+    AuthPickerView {
+      authenticatedContent
+    }
+    .environment(authService)
+  }
+
+  var authenticatedContent: some View {
+    NavigationStack {
+      VStack(spacing: 20) {
+        if authService.authenticationState == .authenticated {
+          Text("Authenticated")
+
+          Button("Manage Account") {
+            authService.isPresented = true
+          }
+          .buttonStyle(.bordered)
+
+          Button("Sign Out") {
+            Task {
+              try? await authService.signOut()
+            }
+          }
+          .buttonStyle(.borderedProminent)
+        } else {
+          Text("Not Authenticated")
+
+          Button("Sign In") {
+            authService.isPresented = true
+          }
+          .buttonStyle(.borderedProminent)
+        }
+      }
+    }
+    .onChange(of: authService.authenticationState) { _, newValue in
+      if newValue != .authenticating {
+        authService.isPresented = (newValue == .unauthenticated)
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+When you use `AuthPickerView`, FirebaseUI handles the default authentication flow for you, including:
+
+- Navigation between sign-in screens
+- Password recovery and email link flows
+- Account conflict handling
+- Reauthentication for sensitive operations
+- MFA resolution when enabled
+
+If you want more control, you can skip `AuthPickerView` and call `AuthService` methods directly from your own views.
+
+## Sign out
+
+FirebaseUI provides an async sign-out method:
+
+```swift
+Task {
+  try await authService.signOut()
+}
+```
+
+## Customization
+
+You can customize the authentication experience in a few different ways.
+
+Use `AuthConfiguration` to configure behavior such as:
+
+- Terms of service and privacy policy URLs
+- Custom localized strings bundle
+- Email link configuration
+- Anonymous user upgrades
+- MFA support
+
+```swift
+let configuration = AuthConfiguration(
+  shouldAutoUpgradeAnonymousUsers: true,
+  customStringsBundle: .main,
+  tosUrl: URL(string: "https://example.com/terms"),
+  privacyPolicyUrl: URL(string: "https://example.com/privacy"),
+  mfaEnabled: true
+)
+```
+
+If you want to keep the built-in buttons but use your own layout, call `authService.renderButtons()`.
+
+If you want a fully custom experience, build your own views and call methods such as:
+
+- `authService.signIn(_:)`
+- `authService.signIn(email:password:)`
+- `authService.createUser(email:password:)`
+- `authService.verifyPhoneNumber(phoneNumber:)`
+- `authService.signInWithPhoneNumber(verificationID:verificationCode:)`
+
+You can also register your own provider button by conforming to `AuthProviderUI` and calling `authService.registerProvider(providerWithButton:)`.
+
+## Next steps
+
+- See `FirebaseSwiftUI/README.md` for the full API reference and advanced usage.
+- See `samples/swiftui/FirebaseSwiftUISample` for a working example app.
+- For provider-specific setup details, refer to the Firebase Authentication docs for the provider you are enabling.
