This looks very refreshing! Congrats for officially launching,I think StackAuth was mentioned here before.
What are your plans for supporting "old school" frameworks, like django, rails, bootstrap, et al?
I know that it makes sense to target greenfield projects first, and I presume most new projects are started with some new cool tech (if looking at npm downloads or some other vanity metric or online questionnaire), but I think there's a long tail of users of other tech that would potentially provide high quality feedback based on real world experience at various settings.
I'm only saying this as it looks like you want to own the whole auth stack, all the layers and all the workflows, from dba to sales so to speak.
- n2d4 2y agoIndeed, we launched an MVP in Show HN a few months ago — dang messaged us and said we should apply to YC, which we did, and now we're launching here again, officially. :D We will definitely support those frameworks too, eventually. Though, we think that each integration must be done very carefully — we'd rather have excellent support for one framework and capture its entire audience before going horizontally, than ten mediocre integrations that give our users a headache on setup. We went for Next.js first because a) it's the most popular JS framework for new projects right now, and b) existing Next.js auth is pretty shit.
