Implementation of handling redirection after Firebase login in React

Question

I'm trying to implement login functionality using Firebase Authentication in my React app. I am able to successfully authenticate the user with email and password, however I am not able to properly handle redirecting the user to the homepage after logging in.

This is my login form component:

import { useState } from 'react';
import { useFirebase } from 'react-redux-firebase';

const LoginForm = () => {
    const [email, setEmail] = useState('');
    const [password, setPassword] = useState('');
    const firebase = useFirebase();

    const handleSubmit = (e) => {
        e.preventDefault();
        firebase.login({
            email,
            password
        })
    }

    return (
        <form onSubmit={handleSubmit}>
            <input type="email" value={email} onChange={e => setEmail(e.target.value)} placeholder="Email" />
            <input type="password" value={password} onChange={e => setPassword(e.target.value)} placeholder="Password" />
            <button type="submit">Login</button>
        </form>
    )
}

export default LoginForm;

How do I handle redirecting the user to the homepage after a successful login?

If you are using React Router Dom, you can use Redirect in React Router Dom after user authentication. https://reactrouter.com/en/main/fetch/redirect

For example:

import { redirect } from "react-router-dom";
 firebase.login({
            email,
            password
        }).then(()=> redirect("/homeppage"));
  }
