I developed a Vite ReactJS web application where users log in using Google OAuth 2.0. Upon logging in, I retrieve the user's email and store it in the users collection in Appwrite. After logging in, users are prompted to set a username, which is also stored in the same collection alongside their email. So, each user in the collection has the following attributes: Document ID, email, given_name, username, and avatar.

The email is obtained through Google login, while the username is set after the user completes a CAPTCHA. I do not store the email unless the user has set a username and passed the CAPTCHA.

Appwrite provides an Auth feature with Users and Teams. So I am confused if I am on the correct path with the user sign up process.

Currently, my application works as intended. I just want to know if my approach is unproblematic. Can you please clarify?

TL;DR
Developers created a Vite ReactJS web app where users log in via Google OAuth 2.0, storing email in the `users` collection and prompting users to set a username after login. The username is stored alongside email after completing a CAPTCHA. Appwrite's Users and Teams Auth feature is used, and the signup process works fine. The approach appears to be solid.
