  • next-firebase-auth vs next-firebase-auth-edge
    2 projects | /r/nextjs | 29 Jun 2023
    Hey I was just wondering what the main differences are between next-firebase-auth and next-firebase-auth-edge They seem incredibly similar and I decided to go with auth-edge, but I was wondering if anyone has experience with the other library and what the main differences are. I am unfamiliar with security and dealing with auth tokens inside the browser's cookies, so I would like to have a better understanding of these tools and the pros and cons. Thanks in advance!

    In the SSR case, if all you want is firestore, then the admin SDK is perfect for this and easy enough to use from the server-side. If you want authentication also, that adds some moving pieces and I would probably at next-firebase-auth (which works with firebase authentication) or next-auth (which can use firestore for it's database, but handles authentication itself) to take care of the heavy lifting of SSR authentication.

    Both Firebase and Next-Auth have what you're looking for. The security is baked in. https://github.com/gladly-team/next-firebase-auth https://next-auth.js.org/
