Stop Building Auth From Scratch: Try AuthKit Instead

#javascript #webdev #programming #beginners

Spend 30 seconds setting up production-ready authentication instead of 3+ weeks of headaches.

Auth is a pain. JWT token rotation, OAuth flows, secure password hashing, CORS issues, XSS vulnerabilities… it never ends. AuthKit fixes all of that in one setup.

git clone https://github.com/Om7035/AuthKit.git
cd AuthKit
docker-compose up -d
# Visit http://localhost:3000
# Login: demo@authkit.com / password
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Why AuthKit?

  • Enterprise security: JWT + httpOnly cookies, bcrypt, token refresh, rate limiting, SQL injection protection
  • Developer-friendly: One-command Docker setup, React+Tailwind UI, Google OAuth & Firebase ready, PostgreSQL included
  • Flexible backend: Choose Google OAuth for simplicity or Firebase Auth for full features
  • Complete API docs and live demo

Who should use AuthKit?

  • Solo devs & startups: Ship MVPs faster
  • Enterprise teams: Secure, scalable, production-ready
