Didn’t get a chance to attend the Easy Realm JWT Authentication with CosyncJWT Meetup? Don’t worry, we recorded the session and you can now watch it at your leisure to get you caught up.
In this meetup, Richard Krueger, CEO Cosync, will focus on the benefits of JWT authentication and how to easily implement CosyncJWT within a Realm application. CosyncJWT is a JWT Authentication service specifically designed for MongoDB Realm application. It supports RSA public/private key third party email authentication and a number of features for onboard users to a Realm application. These features include signup and invite email confirmation, two-factor verification through the Google authenticator and SMS through Twilio, and configurable meta-data through the JWT standard. …
Motivation
This guide will show how to create a signing key and a JWT token to test one of the Authentication providers Realm offers.
There are two main scenarios for requiring Custom JWT Authentication.
- Using a third-party service authentication like Firebase, Cosync, or Auth0.
- Using your own custom authentication to sign and validate JWT tokens.
This guide will focus on the creation of custom signing keys and JWT tokens to authenticate your users on your Realm App.
Prerequisites
You will need to download the example project provided to create a signing key and JWT tokens that you are going to use later…
Porting an app that’s using Core Data to Realm is very simple. If you have an app that already uses Core Data, and have been considering the move to Realm, this step-by-step guide is for you! The way that your code interacts with Core Data and Realm is very different depending on whether your app is based on SwiftUI or UIKit-this guide assumes SwiftUI (a UIKit version will come soon.)
You’re far from the first developer to port your app from Core Data to Realm, and we’ve been told many times that it can be done in a matter of…
This is a beginner article where we introduce you to the Realm Android SDK, dive through its features, and illustrate the development of the process with a demo application to get you started quickly.
In this article, you will learn how to set up an Android application with the Realm Android SDK, write basic queries to manipulate data, and you’ll receive an introduction to Realm Studio, a tool designed to view the local Realm database.
Pre-Requisites: You have created at least one app using Android Studio.
What is Realm?
Realm is an object database that is simple to embed in…
Realm partitioning can be used to control what data is synced to each mobile device, ensuring that your app is efficient, performant, and secure. This article will help you pick the right partitioning strategy for your app.
MongoDB Realm Sync stores the superset of your application data in the cloud using MongoDB Atlas. The simplest strategy is that every instance of your mobile app contains the full database, but that quickly consumes a lot of space on the users’ devices and makes the app slow to start while it syncs all of the data for the first time. …
I have been developing for MongoDB Realm since its release in June 2020. In my opinion, this system is the only real-time database to support truly collaborative computing that is simultaneously scalable, secure, and supports offline-first capabilities.
When MongoDB Realm was initially released, it provided little to no integration with Apple’s new SwiftUI technology. This is not to say that you could not develop a SwiftUI application using Realm, only that there was no easy way to embed Realm within a SwiftUI view directly using property wrappers. …
Realm is an open-source, easy-to-use local database that helps mobile developers to build better apps faster. It launched 8 years ago with the release of the Realm Java SDK, and since then we’ve worked to make sure our API is always improving to reflect what mobile developers need.
As Kotlin has grown to become the recommended language for building Android apps, we’ve made iterative improvements to our Realm Java SDK to make sure the API is compatible. …
Apple published a great tutorial to teach developers how to create iOS apps using SwiftUI. I particularly like it because it doesn’t make any assumptions about existing UIKit experience, making it ideal for developers new to iOS. That tutorial is built around an app named “Scrumdinger,” which is designed to facilitate daily scrum meetings.
Apple’s Scrumdinger implementation saves the app data to a local file whenever the user minimizes the app, and loads it again when they open the app. It seemed an interesting exercise to modify Scrumdinger to use Realm rather than a flat file to persist the data…
In this video Dominic Frei shows how to SAVE and LOAD your data in Unity3D with Realm SDK.

In 2020, MongoDB partnered with the WildAid Marine Protection Program to create a mobile app for officers to use while out at sea patrolling Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) worldwide. We implemented apps for iOS, Android, and web, where they all share the same Realm back end, schema, and sync strategy. This article explains the data architecture, schema, and partitioning strategy we used. If you’re developing a mobile app with Realm, this post will help you design and implement your data architecture.
MPAs-like national parks on land-set aside dedicated coastal and marine environments for conservation. WildAid helps enable local agencies to…
