  • SurveyJS - Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • node-argon2

    Node.js bindings for Argon2 hashing algorithm

  • Argon2: this is the newest highly recommended algorithm, and recommended by OWASP. (Edit: originally linked to a low-download library.)

  • lucia

    Authentication, simple and clean

  • scrypt: baked into the Node crypto package; this is also a relatively common algorithm. Lucia-auth, a great new authentication library, seems to use this internally when generating passwords.

  • SurveyJS

    Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.

  • node.bcrypt.js

    bcrypt for NodeJs

  • bcrypt: the old standby, it looks like this has fallen out of favor for new projects.
