How to build Auth in 2023 with go?
Also really easy to implement as there are libraries that do all the heavy lifting for you (https://github.com/markbates/goth is a great starting place IMHO)

Why use a 'global' anonymous function instead of a named one?
In the package 'markbates/goth' that provides a client implementation of OAuth 2.0, the authors have defined the function CompleteUserAuth at the package level like this:
- Authentication in Go? Best practices
-
Single sign on with LinkedIn
You can use oauth2. Just take e.g. a look at the dex documentation dex. Dex is not a library but a standalone federated oidc provider. Highly recommended. For libraries take a look at goth.
- Simple web app, how to do auth?

The impossible case of pitching rust in a web dev shop
For the kind of websites I prefer to build -- server side rendered with HTMX/Alpine for the extra niceness -- Rust I think could be a very good fit. The main downside for my personal projects is the ecosystem. E.g., a good standard way to handle CSRF tokens, standardised oauth2 implementations (like https://github.com/markbates/goth in Go), things like that. I found myself having to write a lot of code that just exists in the Go ecosystem. The main downside for a business is that it's going to make it harder to hire, since Rust genuinely requires more skill. Yes, developers will make mistakes in Go, as it's far too easy to do things like access shared memory in dangerous ways. But on the flip side, it's a lot easier for them to deliver a feature. In a choice between shipping a feature that is buggy in hard to detect ways, vs not being able to deliver at all because you can't get developers, I think it's better to ship.
