Today I discovered…
SuperTokens
Authentication service for login and session management in web/mobile apps. Takes care of both backend and the frontend part.
💖 What I like:
The complete stack is open-source with permissive license - core auth server, backend SDKs, and fronend SDKs. Makes up an excellent OSS alternative to Google’s Firebase Auth, Amazon’s Cognito, Auth0, etc.
Supports all common auth use cases - passwordless, email/password, social
Provides most of the functionalities out-of-the-box and gives the control to customize everything easily
👎 What I dislike:
Lack of good source code comments - While its docs/guides are great, I prefer to go to the source of the truth(the codebase) to figure out advanced stuff. This could be improved in this project
