Fix Broken Profile Image 🩹 about intro-to-firebase

[antciulla]

Would this be something that can be handled in profile.js? Could I implement a check if the displayImage is valid, if not set a default avatar for the user? Or am I thinking about this the wrong way?

That's exactly the way I would do it! You can add a default avatar in the assets/ folder and use the profile.js to determine if the displayImage url is not null.

Currently, if the user does not have an image, a random image is fetched and there's no broken image as the result:

Would you still like to have a default static image for the users who don't have an image?

EDIT: Actually the image is set here:
