   SuperTokens is reliable and safe

   The best part about this library is the level of security it provides with session management. Implementing the library was also easy through the document they provide and with the extensive support on discord channel. They also provided a lot of features compared to the previous library which I was using.

   🏁 Competitors: Auth0, Firebase, Amazon Cognito

   👍 Pros:    Jwt blacklisting|Rotating jwt signing key|Malware protection|Man in the middle attack protection

   👎 Cons:    Automatic email alerts for high resource usage

   SuperTokens! Best app for Session Security

   I used it with MongoDB and Nodejs. It was very robust and took care of all my security issues. It's super easy to implement like it took me somewhere around 2 to 3 days to implement also while installing it doesn't force or restrict you from doing something a certain way. The documentation provided by SuperTokens is phenomenal too.

   🏁 Competitors: ExpressJS

   👍 Pros:    Session security|Session management|Data protection and security|Simple pricing|Super simple|Easy to use|Information is easily accessible

   👎 Cons:    Not enough intergration yet

• Auth Pricing Wars: Cognito vs Auth0 vs Firebase vs Supabase

  For B2C, Supabase will get you most of the way for small to medium MAU applications. You might need additional services for analytics and monitoring. If you are building a boom-or-bust B2C company (ex. Social media platform, video game, media publication) you should consider using an open-source self-hosted solution like SuperTokens. - Source: dev.to / 10 months ago

  My love for Astro and the web platform is well documented. I've contributed to the docs, I've built some integrations and themes.
