Turns out I placed this

<!-- Firebase Configuration-->
  <!-- The core Firebase JS SDK is always required and must be listed first -->
  <script src="https://www.gstatic.com/firebasejs/7.15.5/firebase-app.js"></script>

  <!-- TODO: Add SDKs for Firebase products that you want to use
      https://firebase.google.com/docs/web/setup#available-libraries -->
  <script src="https://www.gstatic.com/firebasejs/7.15.5/firebase-auth.js"></script>
  <!-- <script src="https://www.gstatic.com/firebasejs/7.15.5/firebase-analytics.js"></script>  -->
  <script src="https://www.gstatic.com/firebasejs/7.15.5/firebase-app.js"></script>
  <script src="https://www.gstatic.com/firebasejs/7.15.5/firebase-firestore.js"></script>
  <script src="https://www.gstatic.com/firebasejs/7.15.5/firebase-storage.js"></script>
  <script src="https://www.gstatic.com/firebasejs/7.15.5/firebase-database.js"></script>

  <script>
    // Your web app's Firebase configuration
    var firebaseConfig = {
      //my info
    };
    // Initialize Firebase
    firebase.initializeApp(firebaseConfig);
    // firebase.analytics();
  </script>
  <!-- End of Firebase Configuration-->

In the wrong place.

It should be inside the <head> tag.

Side note, I had this <script src="https://www.gstatic.com/firebasejs/7.15.5/firebase-app.js"></script> twice, so I deleted the one below.

Finally, thanks to David Iglesias for his answer here: https://github.com/FirebaseExtended/flutterfire/issues/2860#issuecomment-651313186.

I am trying to implement a simple Flutter Web App, with Firebase Auth.

I am getting the error NoSuchMethodError: tried to call a non-function, such as null: 'dart.global.firebase.auth'.

I have looked at other posts, such as "NoSuchMethodError: tried to call a non-function, such as null: 'dart.global.firebase.auth'" when initializing auth() in flutter for web and Flutter web: tried to call a non-function, such as null: 'dart.global.firebase.storage.

Both suggest the same solution: add firebase-auth.js to index.html. I already did it. This is how my index.html file looks like:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
  <meta charset="UTF-8">
  <meta content="IE=Edge" http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible">
  <meta name="description" content="A new Flutter project.">

    if ('serviceWorker' in navigator) {

        navigator.serviceWorker.register('flutter_service_worker.js');
      });
    }
  </script>
  <script src="main.dart.js" type="application/javascript"></script>
</body>
</html>

Thanks for your help!
