Derby is absolutely amazing, but when I tried to build something with it 6+ months ago, I was stymied by the complete lack of authentication features. The majority of apps (and games) require the ability to show one user X+Y and another user Y+Z, and it seems like a ludicrous oversight.
Looking now, I see a vague reference to server-side logic (in the context of recommending against it!), but nothing about auth specifically. Has anything changed or improved on this front, or are there any plans to do so?
- norviller 14y agoI believe that auth is in Derby, although it has just yet to be documented formally...
- nateps 14y agoThis is correct. We have been developing and testing auth with our own app, and we'll publish a simple example using it soon.

- lukifer 14y agoGood catch, you are technically correct (the best kind of correct).
