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Passport is outdated and the project has been more or less on a stand-still for years now.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.

Optimizing Keycloak Caches: Best Practices for Embedded and External Infinispan
One common approach is to use an external Infinispan with a database persistence to store sessions outside of Keycloak, at least until version 26 makes the user session persistence feature (introduced in Keycloak version 25) a permanent part of Keycloak, moving beyond its previous preview status.

OAuth 2 Token Exchange with Spring Security and Keycloak
In today's interconnected digital landscape, companies often collaborate to provide seamless services to their users. In this post, we’ll explore a scenario involving two hypothetical companies: MyDoctor and MyHealth. We’ll demonstrate how MyHealth users can log in to MyDoctor using their MyHealth credentials, and how MyDoctor's backend can securely call MyHealth's APIs on behalf of the user. To achieve this, we’ll leverage OAuth 2 Token Exchange (RFC8693) with Spring Security and Keycloak.

OAuth 2 for SWEs working on AuthZ systems
Does not have LTS support so major version upgrades may be necessary when security patches are released. However, major version upgrades may cause breaking changes (which I have encountered a few times).

Introduction to Keycloak
export KC_VERSION=24.0.4 curl -LO https://github.com/keycloak/keycloak/releases/download/"${KC_VERSION}"/keycloak-"${KC_VERSION}".zip
Keycloak is an open-source project created by RedHat for Single Sign-On. It provides an Identity and Access Management (IAM) solution designed to secure application services. Additionally, it enables users to authenticate through various identity providers and use fine-grained permissions for regulating access to Software as a Service (SaaS) applications.

Securing Angular Apps with Keycloak
In this article we'll be using Keycloak to quickly secure a Angular application with user management and single sign on (SSO) using the open source IAMs Keycloak for Authentication and Authorization. We will demonstrate the integration by securing a page for logged-in users. This quickly provides a jump-off point to more complex integrations.

Identity: Self-Hosted or in the Cloud?
Keycloak is definitely not small but you might find that you can ignore enough of the functionality to pretend that it is.

I also thought the assignment appeared when developers were refactoring the code, which might have been even more complicated before. In the end, I found that the function was originally created this way (commit).
