    Next.js in short is a React app framework that server renders components. If you use React you probably heard about Next.js. If you didn't, please take some time to read about it on their website, it's great and it's pretty much the only way we write React apps at Finiam.

  2. JSON Web Tokens are an open, industry standard RFC 7519 method for representing claims securely between two parties.

    You probably heard about JWT also known as JSON web tokens. They are used by most web services for authentication, using JWT to encode some of the user info and use it as a token that identifies the user. You should never store secret info on JWTs as they are meant to be readable by anyone. It's the signing mechanism of a JWT however that guarantees the identity and validity of a given token.

  3. Cloudflare is a global network designed to make everything you connect to the Internet secure, private, fast, and reliable.
    The code you are about to see, especially the backend part of it, lacks a lot of the required functionality to make a truly robust and secure authentication flow. It doesn't handle brute force attacks, doesn't rate-limit sign-ups, has no geolocation protection, has no session management, meaning that we can't log out users remotely or anything like that, and has no CSRF protection. We work in the finance world where most of these things are mandatory. We recommend using auth0 which has most of these features or at least setting up Cloudflare to rate the limit on your endpoints.
