An Introduction to Devise for Ruby on Rails
Devise is an authentication library built on top of Warden, a Rack-based authentication framework.

A First Look at Hanami 2 for Ruby
In general, even though the Hanami ecosystem lacks any "plug-and-play" solutions such as Devise, you can use many existing libraries not tightly coupled to Ruby on Rails. For authentication, you can use Warden, OmniAuth or Rodauth. For uploads there is Shrine. The pagination is built into ROM. Integration with exception catchers such as Rollbar is easy.

Time to think about swapping off Devise?
There hasn't been a lot that has changed to how sessions are managed. Warden itself hasn't had much by way of updates in years, but you didn't even mention that.

Which authentication gems to use aside from devise?
Do you use system tests in authlogic? Devise (or more precisely, Warden) has has a helper that sets the user on next request.
-
Recommended Auth gem for Jr-level developers?
Devise is probably the most popular option out there. If you're learning to apply your skills in the wild then I'd recommend Devise. In my opinion, there's a learning curve, especially if you want to customize it more. You can also learn the underlying Ruby gem called warden.

What's going on with Devise for Rails 7 ?!
Warden perhaps? It's the actual authentication part Devise uses.
-
Devise only allow one session per user at the same time
Despite this approach works, it's polluting the controller with authentication logic. Given that Devise uses Warden under the hood, the same can be achieved by taking advantage of warden callbacks that will always get executed when a meaningful event is triggered.

Managing redirects to a subdomain after authentication in a React/Rails application using React Router
I have a React single page application using React Router that hooks into a Rails 5 API. The Rails application uses devise_token_auth for authentication. I've successfully created an authentication process that stores the user state in a Redux store on the client side.

Is it possible to retrieve the user index with devise ?
Did you send an authorization header with your api call? The error is pretty clear — the request is unauthorized. Devise is expecting session cookies, but your api should use tokens. https://github.com/lynndylanhurley/devise_token_auth

Don't make me think, or why I switched to Rails from JavaScript SPAs
I mentioned Identity in my first comment. I've never found it as simple as Devise though - especially in an API only setting.
With Devise there's a third-party Gem you can use called devise_token_auth which deals with everything automatically.

Working around un-maintained redux-token-auth for redux and react 17 upgrade
redux-token-auth is a great library. What it mainly does is it provides a plug and play auth implementation functionality for ruby on rails based APIs which implement popular devise_token_auth for auth handling.

Best project setup for Rails+React with "remember me" feature
I'd prefer to have a standalone rails API and a react client separately, but that's not mandatory. I discovered a gem called devise_token_auth and it didn't seem to have refresh tokens but it refreshed the tokens on every request anyway so I was pretty happy with it.
