  3. django-passkeys

    Django Authentication Backend For Passkeys

    This doesn't look all that hard: https://github.com/mkalioby/django-passkeys but I guess it depends on how low-level your backend is.

    I would personally separate auth and the application. Configuring something like Keycloak or Authelia or one of the many other alternatives to do all the difficult work for you and just logging in through SSO/SAML seems much easier than having to keep track of your own authentication rules/security hashes/salting/etc. without making a mistake.

NOTE: The number of mentions on this list indicates mentions on common posts plus user suggested alternatives. Hence, a higher number means a more popular project.
