```
import firebase from 'firebase/compat/app';
import 'firebase/compat/auth';
import 'firebase/compat/firestore';
const app = firebase.initializeApp({
apiKey: '',
authDomain: '',
databaseURL: '',
projectId: ''
});
const auth = app.auth();
const firestore = app.firestore();
export default {
authenticateUser(email, password) {
return auth.signInWithEmailAndPassword(email, password);
},
signOut() {
return auth.signOut();
},
getAuthUser() {
return auth.currentUser;
},
getFirestore() {
return firestore;
}
};
```
This is an example of how to use React and Firebase together in a project. By using the `firebase` package, we can easily integrate Firebase into our React applications. We first import the necessary packages from Firebase (`auth`, `firestore`) and initialize the Firebase app with our API keys and database URL. Then, we export the functions we want to use with Firebase.
In this example, we have three functions:
- `authenticateUser`: authenticates a user using their email and password
- `signOut`: signs out the current user
- `getAuthUser`: retrieves the currently logged in user
- `getFirestore`: retrieves the Firestore instance for our Firebase app
