Introducing Veri - Minimal Cookie-Based Authentication for Rails
Briefly

Veri is a minimalistic authentication framework designed for Rails applications, focusing on granular session management without imposing any specific business logic or user interface elements. Unlike traditional full-stack solutions, Veri offers developers the key components needed for secure authentication and custom flows. Key features include database-stored sessions with detailed tracking, selective session termination, user impersonation for admin functions, multiple hashing algorithms for secure password storage, and effective return path handling. While functional, Veri is still in early development, with potential breaking changes anticipated before the official v1.0 release.
Veri offers a minimalistic approach to authentication in Rails, emphasizing granular session management without enforcing business logic or pre-built views. This allows for full customization.
With features like database-stored sessions, detailed session tracking, and user impersonation, Veri provides robust tools for managing authentication and user access.
The focus of Veri is on delivering secure authentication primitives that allow developers to build their own custom authentication flows, catering specifically to their application's needs.
Although functional and ready for testing, Veri's early development stage suggests that users should be aware of potential breaking changes before its first stable release.
