Does this answer your question? [Delete cookie by name?](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10593013/delete-cookie-by-name) — Dan Philip Bejoy, Dec 13 '22 at 04:17
guess this work should be done right before calling the api. How do you call the apis? there should be kinda option for manipulating it. Seems not highly related to the React.js — kyuhyun, Dec 13 '22 at 04:56

I think you're using the package js-cookie

To remove the cookie while logging out call Cookies.remove('email') at the end of the handler function.

If the log out call returns a positive response for successful logout, then maybe use that as a condition for removing the cookie.

Saving token (not the login details) is quite standard. – Badal Saibo Dec 13 '22 at 07:30
you mean something like jwt token ? and second question is ...is this cookie method is correct ? – Julia Dec 13 '22 at 07:37
Yes. Cookie method is fine. – Badal Saibo Dec 13 '22 at 07:42
and should we use jwt token or something other ? – Julia Dec 13 '22 at 07:47
JWT token is quite standard too. – Badal Saibo Dec 13 '22 at 07:48
