Non-technical person looking for your help
Next, use something like https://www.npmjs.com/package/passport, this is authentication middleware, and it works similarly for different authentication providers. Carefully read the documentation. OAuth is complicated, but that's because it solves a complicated problem

Should I use Passport Js for user authentication?
Passport is outdated and the project has been more or less on a stand-still for years now. As of currently, there are more than 320 open issues and very few have been resolved within the last months. I'd highly advice you not to use Passport for your applications in 2023. You've received some great alternatives by others in the comments here.

req.logout() not working on passport.js even after adding callback?
Research - there's github and stackoverflow documentation saying this is part of passport.js 0.6.0 that can be resolved by turning logout into a callback function (I was not the first person to encounter this error).

Auth.js Authentication for the Web
I went down the rabbithole of using next-auth (now authjs) for a recent project. Having used Passport.js [1] for Oauth2 the last time I was doing node.js ~3 years ago, I found this library to have many footguns as comments/answers on SO and Github.
Seems like many people are trying to shoehorn their codebase [2] (!!) to make it work with the way the library manages sign-in flow, redirects, cookies, logout, etc. [3]
These were solved problems in the MEAN stack era with middlewares, but now that Next.js/react is the trend, people are doing everything they can to make it work - from relaxing security configs, to stashing things in the JWT just so some callback can get an additional piece of data.

Anybody can help with Authentication
I am implementing OAuth with Grant. It looks pretty fantastic with 200+ providers and completely manages full OAuth with a single config file. The problem is I am unable to work it with Next JS. The library works perfectly when I create a test project with express and express-session with these libraries it works perfectly from login to logout everything. In Next JS, I am using iron-session for session management.

Call to help beta test wireless highlight backups with https://kobli.me/
Thanks for taking a look! I use the https://www.npmjs.com/package/grant for OAuth (to spare people having to remember yet another password) and I believe it uses cookies to prevent OAuth replay attacks. Thanks for highlighting this. I'll work on a better error message if cookies are not enabled.

I got tired of fussing with auth, so I built a thing for building OAuth login in under 60 seconds.
Use a proxy like grant or delegating Idp like dex
