Curious how other builders approach this. Every new project needs login, OAuth, sessions, password resets, user management and it's never the fun part.
Do you roll your own each time, reach for a library, or use a hosted service? What's worked and what's bitten you?
(Full disclosure I'm on the Alternative Auth team, we built a white-label auth service for exactly this. But genuinely interested in how everyone else solves it.)
We currently support Google and Facebook out of the box, plus JWT, SSO and full user management. We're planning the next batch of providers.
If you use Alternative Auth (or are considering it) which providers would make the biggest difference for you? Apple, GitHub, Microsoft, Discord, something else? Drop your vote below
Quick intro for anyone who hasn't seen it: Alternative Auth is a white-label authentication service. You get login pages with your own branding, OAuth (Google, Facebook), JWT, SSO and user management dropped into any app in minutes instead of built from scratch.
If you've ever lost a week to rebuilding login, that's exactly the problem this solves. Happy to answer any questions about setup, security, or integrations in the thread.
Alternative Auth adds secure, fully customizable authentication to your app in minutes — no boilerplate, no maintenance.
• White-label login pages with your own branding
• OAuth out of the box (Google, Facebook & more)
• JWT sessions, SSO and full user management
• Drop-in setup — ship auth instead of building it
Stop rebuilding login for every project. Plug in Alternative Auth and focus on your actual product.
