To implement "Sign in with Apple," you can follow these general steps, which are typically covered in Apple's WWDC sessions:

  1. Set Up Your App ID: Ensure your app is registered in the Apple Developer portal and has the "Sign in with Apple" capability enabled.

  2. Configure Your App: In Xcode, enable "Sign in with Apple" in your app's capabilities. This will add the necessary entitlements to your app.

  3. Implement the Sign-In Button: Use the ASAuthorizationAppleIDButton to provide a consistent sign-in experience. This button is styled according to Apple's guidelines and handles the authentication flow.

  4. Handle the Authentication: Implement the ASAuthorizationControllerDelegate and ASAuthorizationControllerPresentationContextProviding protocols to manage the sign-in process and handle the results.

  5. Verify the User: Once you receive the user's information, verify the identity token with your server to ensure the authenticity of the sign-in.

  6. Manage User Data: Store the user data securely and handle any updates to the user's information as needed.

For more detailed guidance, you might want to check out sessions like "Streamline sign-in with passkey upgrades and credential managers" from WWDC 2024, which discusses related topics such as passkeys and credential management.
