I'm making a meal-ordering app demo for fun with React Native and Firebase. I don't want users to have to register in order to make an order, since this can be a point of friction. But at the same time, if I allow writes without authentication, this is a major security hole. How can I solve this? I was thinking of something like registering an account without user interaction, just to keep track of valid clients.

Firebase Anonymous Auth can be useful here. Users don't have to enter any credentials to create an account and you can then also use security rules. However, do note that there is no way to recover an account if users logs out in any way.
