Meteor (JavaScript framework that uses Mongo) has auth built in which makes life super easy! I have found auth in Express kind of tricky but that could just be for my specific purposes. I also love Django (Python) which also has auth out of the box!

I think using Meteor to do authentication is overkill, express and passport are great, especially for learning how things work, but I think the most effective way is not reinventing the wheel, Auth0 does the job perfectly.

That might be true but it's worth knowing about it that makes picking Meteor as a general solution more appealing.

I totally agree with you on that.
