What do they mean by that?
auth0 is a company that sells a variety of authentication solutions (on premise and SaaS) and a variety of authentication libraries/plugins.
For example they run the site https://jwt.io/ https://jwt.io/ that anybody who's had to work with JWT tokens would have used at some point.
- KaiserPro 6y agoAuth0 sell a bunch of authentication products that are similar/compete with cognito. The difference between cognito and auth0 is that auth0 has documentation, code examples and a decent API guide. Cognito has a poorly documented API, terrible integration guides and even worse debugging options Once you have it going, cognito is grand. To get there, its a huge learning curve
