I am building a web app and I would like to accomplish the following:
- Authenticate/store users using AWS Cognito User Pools (Not "Identity Pools")
- Allow users to sign in with both Facebook and username/password.
- Use my own UI (not the hosted UI offered by AWS)
I have set up a User Pool with Facebook as an Identity Provider and an app client, but I can't seem to figure out how I can actually let users sign up.
I've tried a number of things using aws-amplify and amazon-cognito-identity-js, but everything ends up only authenticating the user in the "identity pool" (which I don't really understand why I even need one just to use "user pools").
Considering the AWS mobile SDKs somehow accomplish authentication without requiring the redirects used by the hosted UI, I would think it must be possible to also do this on the web.
