auth-module VS ving

Nuxt 3 comes with built-in utilities to support session and authentication. We are working on a new official module.

The evolution of nuxt-auth: there's nuxt/auth (Nuxt 2), an alternative module to try to bridge the gap for Nuxt 3 (and another one), and suddenly, sidebase/nuxt-auth popped up, which seems to wrap next-auth. I don't know if that's the proposed official solution going forward, reuse don't reinvent, or just a stop-gap measure (will the rug get pulled again?)

If you’re on nuxt 2 you can checkout the „old“ nuxt-auth which supports google and a lot of stuff surrounding it here: https://auth.nuxtjs.org/

If this is to do with user authentication and the API is using some kind of standard way of authenticating (e.g. a REST API) I would personally use https://auth.nuxtjs.org/ to do the heavy lifting for you.

Nuxt Auth module is very convenient to configure oauth and oidc authentication. And it wires everything in a project like routes, store, Axios interceptors etc..

I'm building a bit of a starter kit for Nuxt3 that includes a lot of what you are looking for. Note that I'm not looking to provide support to anyone, but if its useful to you to see working examples you can look at my public repo: https://github.com/plainblack/ving

Nuxt3 can definitely be used for full stack. I'm building out a starter now that provides a full API backend with composables to make using the backend easy on the front end. You're welcome to have a look at it or even use it, but it's pretty early in development at this point: https://github.com/plainblack/ving

This is not perfect or anything, as it was just an experiment, but here's my old TypeORM code in nuxt: https://github.com/plainblack/ving/tree/experimental-orms/typeorm
