Project mention: Launch HN: Better Auth (YC X25) ā Authentication Framework for TypeScript | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-05-19
Does it handle:
- Federated sign-in/out? In next-auth, it is a giant pain to implement: https://github.com/nextauthjs/next-auth/discussions/3938
- Automated refreshing of JWT tokens on the client-side? I always end up having to implement my own logic around this. The big problem is if you have multiple API calls going out and they all require JWT auth, you need to check the JWT validity and block the calls until it is refreshed. In next-auth on the server-side, this is impossible to do since that side is generally stateless, and so you end up with multiple refresh calls happening for the same token.
- The ability to have multiple auth sessions at once, like in a SaaS app where you might belong to multiple accounts / organizations (your intro paragraph sounds like it does)
- Handle how multiple auth sessions are managed if the user happens to open up multiple tabs and swaps accounts in another tab
