Auth.js simplifies implementing user authentication mechanisms into web applications, offering flexibility with various authentication strategies, from simple username-password combinations to complex services like OAuth.
When implementing authentication, it's crucial to understand your app's specific needs, including the actions performed by users and the appropriate validation methods for their identities.
Building authentication comes with challenges like password vulnerabilities and improper session management, making tools like Auth.js essential for ensuring security and usability in web applications.
Originally developed as NextAuth in 2016, Auth.js has evolved significantly, with a rewrite in 2020, enhancing its capabilities for modern authentication needs.
