In this video I allow users to sign up using their email and password by using Google Firebase's authentication feature. It's a super nice feature that handles a lot of things for you. I use the unique account id associated with an email/password combo to contain the data for each user in the real-time database. Next video will cover using the "refresh token" that Firebase authentication supplies to keep users logged in even when closing the app.
When writing your own app with Firebase, please do not share the web API key. It is meant to be secure and I'm only showing mine for the purpose of this tutorial. It will be taken down when the tutorial is finished.
Kivy is an open source tool being developed by people in their spare time. They've just started to try to fund some core developers through monthly donations (they've been working unpaid on this framework for 9 years). Help support them if you can! https://opencollective.com/kivy (no money goes to me, I'm just advocating for the project).
