Developer-Centric Authentication stack with Maximum Control
Developer‑centric authentication stack for teams that want to own their identity layer instead of renting it. This collection brings together Passport.js, Better Auth, Lucia, Keycloak, and Casbin to give you full‑control, self‑hosted authentication and authorization for modern Node.js and TypeScript apps. Use it to implement secure logins, session management, SSO, OAuth 2.0 / OpenID Connect, MFA, and fine‑grained RBAC in your own codebase, without locking yourself into a hosted auth vendor. Ideal for indie and small SaaS teams who care about open‑source IAM, predictable costs, and having every auth decision live inside their repo and infrastructure.
