Email and password

Email-based auth requires a lot of components so be prepared to do some work! For a step-by-step, framework-specific tutorial to learn the basics of password-based auth and Lucia, see the Username and password tutorial.

This guide uses Oslo, a library that provides various auth-related utilities. This is also used by Lucia internally.

npm i oslo

• Password basics
• Email verification
  • Email verification codes (preferred)
  • Email verification links

We recommend reading through the password authentication guide in the Copenhagen Book.
