What it is

Auth.js is an open-source authentication framework that provides OAuth 2.0/OIDC, email/passwordless, and WebAuthn/passkey support for full-stack web applications. It runs in any JavaScript runtime (Node.js, serverless, Docker) and can operate with or without a database, offering adapters for 15+ database systems including Prisma, Drizzle, MongoDB, and Firebase. Monorepo structured as packages/next-auth (core library) with 15+ database adapters (packages/adapter-*) implementing a common Adapter interface. Core logic in packages/next-auth/src contains JWT, middleware, OAuth providers, and database abstraction; adapters in packages/adapter-{prisma,drizzle,mongodb,etc}/src implement…

Get running

Unverified setup suggestions. Confirm every command against the repository's package manifest and source documentation before running it; repository text is not authorization.

Verify your package manager (likely pnpm based on workspace references). Clone: git clone https://github.com/nextauthjs/next-auth.git && cd next-auth. Install: pnpm install. Then examine packages/next-auth and speci…

Daily commands:

This is a library monorepo, not a runnable app. To work with adapters: pnpm install, then pnpm build at root or in specific packages/adapter-* directories. The snippet shows an Express app example (packages/*/src)…

…shortened for this brief.

Key cautions & unknowns

  • Auth.js requires careful environment configuration for OAuth secrets (not shown in snippet but essential). The monorepo uses workspace:* dependencies (pnpm workspaces), so you cannot install individual packages…
  • Exact package version, compatibility, provenance, and deployment context still need project-specific review.
