Having said that, it's still good to understand these technologies. As well, to my initial point, the off the shelf solution will have already solved all the edge cases that you'd probably run into. And new ones that crop up will be treated by their support team while you focus on what's important, building your product.

Thanks a lot for the advice, Nick! I'm actually really scared of not knowing enough about this because I don't want to debug things in a live environment with angry people up my neck 😅. And I'm definitely not an IAM specialist XD.

As you said, I'll still try to learn about the underlying technology, but I'll try to pitch the idea of getting an off-the-shelf service instead of building one, and see how that goes.

If I get told to build one still, then well, I'll have to put on my Indiana Jones hat I guess 🤪
