Stytch Nextjs Integration
A demo application featuring Stytch's Consumer authentication suite built on Next.js
Overview
The Stytch + Next.js Example App is an innovative project designed for developers looking to streamline user authentication in web applications built with Next.js. This app showcases three different authentication flows that leverage Stytch's powerful SDK, providing flexibility in creating secure login experiences for users. Whether you want to implement a simple magic link login or a more complex multi-step authentication process, this example serves as a solid foundation to kickstart your development efforts.
By utilizing modern authentication methods, including email magic links and one-time passcodes via SMS, this app demonstrates how easy it is to integrate secure and user-friendly authentication into your Next.js projects. There's also a focus on OAuth, which allows developers to incorporate the convenience of existing user credentials from major platforms.
Features
- Multiple Authentication Flows: Three different methods for user authentication: React component, custom UI, and Direct API, ensuring versatility for various project needs.
- Email Magic Links: Implement quick and easy email-based login systems, eliminating the need for traditional passwords.
- One-Time Passcodes (OTP): Utilize SMS-based OTPs for added security, allowing users to authenticate via text message.
- OAuth Integration: Out of the box support for popular OAuth providers like Google, Microsoft, Facebook, GitHub, and Apple, making login smooth for users.
- Customizable Redirect URLs: Easily configure redirect URLs in the project settings, allowing for tailored user experiences during authentication.
- WebAuthn Support: Built-in functionality to enhance security with WebAuthn, allowing authentication through biometric methods.
- Vercel Compatibility: Designed to run smoothly on Vercel with simple deployment steps, providing scalability for your applications.
- Local Development Setup: Comprehensive instructions for running the app locally, ensuring developers can test and tweak authentication flows effortlessly.
- Next.js
Next.js is a React-based web framework that enables server-side rendering, static site generation, and other powerful features for building modern web applications.
- React
React is a widely used JavaScript library for building user interfaces and single-page applications. It follows a component-based architecture and uses a virtual DOM to efficiently update and render UI components
- Eslint
ESLint is a linter for JavaScript that analyzes code to detect and report on potential problems and errors, as well as enforce consistent code style and best practices, helping developers to write cleaner, more maintainable code.
- Typescript
TypeScript is a superset of JavaScript, providing optional static typing, classes, interfaces, and other features that help developers write more maintainable and scalable code. TypeScript's static typing system can catch errors at compile-time, making it easier to build and maintain large applications.
