Hello!

I am quite a beginner using LiveView Native and I am building a LiveView Native project for music event planning and I am a bit lost about the user authentication process for IOS platform. I have used the `phx.gen.auth` for LiveView and I understand how it works in the browser version, but not quite on IOS. is there any LiveView Native documentation or examples available for handling user authentication? Maybe someone could point me in the right direction… 🙂, any help would be greatly appreciated 🙂

Welcome!

So the authentication itself should work the same regardless of the client – it’s more about extending the existing auth related LiveViews e.g. `LoginLive`, `RegistrationLive` added by `mix phx.gen.auth` to support rendering for native app clients via `render/2` in addition to browser clients via `render/1`.
