Cannot navigate to /protected when logging in as user in store

First, thanks for the code & the article -- it's a great, simple intro to the Svelte auth workflow!

When running this repo, however, I cannot navigate to /protected when I login as a user saved in the Svelte store (export const user = writable[{ id: 123, email: 'test@example.com', password: 'secret'}]).

Debugging \store\db.js, in getUserById, I can see the id passed as '123', but after find(), existingUser is null.

But when creating a new user via "Sign Up", navigation is permitted as expected. getUserById finds, and returns, the UUID properly.

I tried creating new (hard-coded) users in the store with different ids, and get the same issue.

I've found a workaround by removing the strict equality checks in \store\index.js:

if (value) {
  if (obj.email) {
    existingUser = value.find((item) => item.email == obj.email); // vs ===
  else {
    existingUser = value.find((item) => item.id == obj.id); // vs ===
  }
}
