I thought that the current wording was not accurate both for next-iron-session and next-auth.

  • next-auth is a full-featured authentication system like passport
  • next-iron-session is a session utility

The previous copy was less clear about that and, for example, said you should go for next-iron-session for user/password and next-auth for everything else. Which is not the case. I use next-iron-session with only a Slack login, and you can implement email/password with next-auth.

Hope you like it!

PS: I have no preference between the two, I think they serve a different purpose. I used the two (and authored one).

I used next-auth on https://sourcekarma.vercel.app/
