valibot VS next-auth

I'll use Valibot library, which is a pretty new and cool library for schema validation, similar to Zod.

The ModelFusion zodSchema function wraps the Zod object definition. This is necessary because ModelFusion supports Zod and unchecked JSON schemas and is adaptable to other schema validation libraries such as Valibot.

There was already existing validation in place for the question form page using Valibot, so I only needed to change two lines of code. I imported includes in addition to the other Valibot functions, and I also added an a new line of validation using the includes function to ensure the string has at least one space (If it does not the corresponding error message will be displayed). I had never used Valibot before, but it was easy to learn by looking at the web documentation as well as the existing code. See screenshots of my fix in my PR.

Valibot (good for types and constraints)

NextAuth.js is not perfect. One of the shortcomings is that it currently does not implement federated logout. This means that even if a user signs out of the Next.js app, he does NOT get signed out of the Cognito user pool client. As a consequence, the user is not really being logged out (i.e he is able to login again without providing the credentials). You can read more about this problem in this Github thread.

NextAuth for adding auth

Let's learn a bit about Descope and how to use it with Auth.js (next-auth) to protect our Next.js app with role-based access control (RBAC).

I mentioned this in an age-old discussion on NextAuth GitHub repo.

Authentication is a fundamental part of most web applications. Integrating authentication into your Next.js app can be simplified with NextAuth, a powerful authentication library that supports various authentication methods. However, the documentation around setting up NextAuth with the "Credentials" auth provider might not be as clear as you'd hope. My implementation is greatly enriched and partially based on Next-Auth docs and the following github thread.

I'm surprised nobody mentioned https://authjs.dev/
