Better Auth Authentication
Skill Verified ActiveBetter Auth authentication flows for TypeScript apps. Use when enabling email/password auth, configuring social providers, or implementing sign-up, sign-in, and verification flows.
To simplify and standardize the implementation of robust authentication mechanisms in TypeScript applications, ensuring security and a good user experience.
Features
- Email/password authentication
- Social provider integration
- Sign-up, sign-in, sign-out flows
- Email verification implementation
- Secure secret handling guidance
Use Cases
- Implementing user authentication for a new TypeScript web app.
- Adding social login options (GitHub, Google) to an existing application.
- Configuring email verification to improve user account security.
- Guiding the secure implementation of sign-in and sign-out processes.
Non-Goals
- Providing a runtime authentication service; it offers patterns, not an executable.
- Handling authorization rules beyond basic sign-in/sign-out states.
- Integrating with specific UI frameworks; focuses on backend logic patterns.
Trust
- info:Issues AttentionThere are 4 open issues and 0 closed issues in the last 90 days, indicating limited recent maintainer response to new issues.
Compliance
- info:GDPRThe skill operates on user credentials and potentially personal data, but it correctly advises on keeping secrets server-side and does not submit this data to third parties without explicit user action.
