Part 1: How I built our condos's new web pages with Gatsby and Chakra UI
In the first version of the website, I used Netlify Identity, which is Netlify's own authentication solution. With Netlify Identity Widget it is easy to add authentication, but I quickly discovered that I missed some more advanced functionality. I therefore switched to Auth0, which to a greater extent allowed me to tailor the login solution. Auth0 also had some functionality I needed to create a user admin dashboard, like role-based authentication.

Part 3: Authentication and private routes in Gatsby
However, it soon became apparent that Netlify Identity had some limitations. One was that the login alert was not in Norwegian (I translated it and opened a pull request, but could not wait for it to go through. It's been 7 months now...). The other reason for not sticking with Netlify Identify was that I started working on a dashboard for user account management where I would need some more advanced functionality than Netlify Identity Widget could provide. After some research, I ended up choosing Auth0.

Ask HN: Cheapest/ easiest way to host a static site
How do you know that Netlify is production ready? I found Netlify Identity to not be production ready* and now I'm not so sure about the rest of the platform.
* Three reasons. 1) The identity widget has people setting it up in such a way that tokens aren't refreshed and logins last only an hour. https://github.com/netlify/netlify-identity-widget/issues/11... 2) Netlify Identity keeps bumping me out despite having gone out of my way to get it configured properly. I don't know why but the issue has lasted for weeks. 3) In development mode, the token can't be verified without making a request to Netlify Functions, and the suggested path (in Redwood.js at least) is to just parse the JWT without verifying it.
