Using the Authenticator

The quickest way to get started with Amplify Auth in your frontend application is with the Authenticator component, which provides a customizable UI and complete authentication flows.

import Amplify
import Authenticator
import AWSCognitoAuthPlugin
import SwiftUI
@main
struct MyApp: App {
init() {
do {
try Amplify.add(plugin: AWSCognitoAuthPlugin())
try Amplify.configure(with: .amplifyOutputs)
} catch {
print("Unable to configure Amplify \(error)")
}
}
var body: some Scene {
WindowGroup {
Authenticator { state in
VStack {
Text("Hello, \(state.user.username)")
Button("Sign out") {
Task {
await state.signOut()
}
}
}
}
}
}
}

The Authenticator component is automatically configured based on the outputs generated from your backend. To learn more about the Authenticator and how to customize its appearance, visit the Amplify UI documentation.
