Found this absolute gem of a function in the company repo, file is called "login_system.js"
The owasp cheatsheet is probably the best resource https://cheatsheetseries.owasp.org/cheatsheets/Authentication_Cheat_Sheet.html, there's also this rails tutorial https://stevepolito.design/blog/rails-authentication-from-scratch that incorporates some (but not all) good practices that covers implementation details, but are broadly applicable to any language and framework

Time to think about swapping off Devise?
Devise not being Hotwire compatible is a huge turnoff for me. Honestly if I were staring a new project today I’d probably go with a “hand rolled” authentication. I haven’t done it myself but I know a lot of thought was put into this guide if you were interested in that route: https://stevepolito.design/blog/rails-authentication-from-scratch/

This looks promising and I'd love to have the full control on my application. And recently I went through this repo https://github.com/stevepolitodesign/rails-authentication-from-scratch with a lot of details on how Devise works under the hood. It makes it really easy to understando all the different chunks of code and how the work all together.
