I'm using React with Node. Using routes within react. I'm using the docs on the link below to set up a check so that on the base root of the website (/) you see a different page depending on whether you're logged in or not.
Problem is that I don't want to wrap all my routes in
<EmailPasswordAuth requireAuth={false}>useSessionContext()r

04/27/2022, 2:03 PMIf you don’t want to do that, any other way to know if a user is logged in is to use await Session.doesSessionExist()
