Okta Spring Boot Starter VS node

Okta also now has an Okta Spring Boot starter. I didn't use it in my first experiment, but I'm a big fan of it after the last few years! It dramatically simplifies configuration and makes securing your apps with OAuth 2.0 and OIDC easy. It's a thin wrapper around Spring Security's resource server, OAuth client, and OIDC features. Not only that, but it works with Okta Workforce Identity, Okta Customer Identity (aka Auth0), and even Keycloak.

looks like these, the api, sdk, and the httpclient are basically what the okta saml spring boot starter are wrapping (https://github.com/okta/okta-spring-boot/blob/master/okta-spring-boot-starter/pom.xml). so you should be able to call those directly.

If you'd rather use Auth0, that's possible too! First, you'll need to use the Spring Security dependencies as mentioned above. The Okta Spring Boot starter currently doesn't work with Auth0.

Basic knowledge of Node.js and its environment setup. If you don't have Node.js installed on your system, make sure you download and install it from the official Node.js website.

Node.js can be easily installed from its official website. Depending on your operating system, you can choose the Windows, macOS, or Linux version. Node.js packages come with npm (Node Package Manager), which is essential for managing dependencies in your projects.

To get started with Node.js 22.0.0, you can download the latest version from the official Node.js website. For those upgrading from an older version, it is recommended to test your existing applications for compatibility with the new release, particularly if you are using native modules or rely heavily on third-party npm packages.

Node.js (version 10 or higher)

Before we start, ensure that you have Node.js installed on your computer. This is necessary because we will use Node's package manager (npm) to create our Next.js project. If you need to install Node.js, you can download it from the official Node.js website.

Before starting a new project in react, you need to make sure that you have NodeJS install on your system. You can download the latest version of node at https://nodejs.org. Follow the instructions on the node website to do the installation.

Installing Node.js: Download and install Node.js from nodejs.org. Choose the version recommended for most users, unless you have specific needs that require the latest features or earlier compatibility.

You should have Nodejs installed on your laptop and if not, check the Node.js official website, and download/ install the latest and stable release.
