Why is it important?
Most applications require authorization, and building authentication from scratch often takes a lot of time and effort. Nuxt Auth Utils, supported by Nuxt's creator Sébastien Chopin (Atinux), simplifies this process while maintaining flexibility for customization.
What you will learn:
- Authentication Basics: Understand the difference between authentication and authorization, the functioning of cookie sessions, stateful and stateless approaches.
- Social Logins: Implement authorization through GitHub and other services in a step-by-step manner.
- Email/Password: Implement a secure system using built-in hashing features.
- Passkeys: Get acquainted with the future of authentication - logging in with fingerprint, FaceID, and other biometric methods.
- TypeScript and Sessions: Learn to type user data and manage it securely.
- Route and API Protection: Master middleware and server techniques for complete application security.
By the end of the course, you will be able to confidently implement modern authentication methods, protect sensitive data, and build reliable login systems for applications on Nuxt 3.
