hello
thanks for this helpful article,
how the refresh token will be done if the access token expire and without a page refresh ,would it be by implementing an interceptor to handle 401 error?
Great question! Exactly, an interceptor would be a good idea for handling a 401 response error. Feel free to open an issue at GitHub and I try to provide an example.
