- rozap 6mo agothis is sorta the obvious takeaway here. as a postgres/phoenix/elixir enjoyer i am blissfully unaware of all this sort of SaaS churn.
- Scarbutt 6mo agoWhat framework offers all those auth features OOTB?

- giancarlostoro 6mo agoASP .NET Core, Ruby on Rails, Django, .... the list goes on and on... The ones that don't usually someone built a package that lets it happen.
- skydhash 6mo agoI remember Laravel with Socialite [0]. Laravel is what I usually reach for Web SaaS MVP. You only need a VPS and a managed database for testing out the market and can scale a lot without increasing expenses that much..

- mchusma 6mo agoI’ve looked at these auth providers many times over the years and I just don’t get the value. It takes me a couple of minutes to set up auth. Why would I want a dependency? It doesn’t help me with the hardest part which is configuring Google and Apple sign in stuff on Google and Apple. I just don’t get it.
- vevoe 6mo agoI use better auth for a side project i'm working on. It's open source, you can pay them to manage your user/auth tables if you want or you can run it all on your own db.
- giancarlostoro 6mo agoSure, I guess if I'm using a web framework that is not quite batteries included, that makes sense, but Django, ASP .NET Core, Ruby on Rails, and so many others are open source and have authentication / users / roles baked in out of the box.
