Now, this response was "not on my bingo card" as the youths say. I find it surprising that Swift would come up on a discussion about JavaScript auth libraries. Can you tell us more about what you are looking for?

Sorry it was a bit off-topic (not related to Auth.js). I'm specifically asking about Better-Auth, as I'd love to use it in an iOS app but the client library is all JS. I'd even consider writing my own client library, but there is virtually no documentation on how to do so.

Thanks for explaining.

I saw the same sentiment for golang in other comments.

No real suggestions for ya, sorry!

I interviewed for an SRE position at Auth0 years ago. My interviewer told me it was all held together by duct tape and prayers. I'm glad I didn't end up taking that position.

To be fair that's the views of SREs everywhere

Sure, everyone ends up having a dim perspective on what they manage usually. But this was especially noticeable as he explained to me how many incidents they'd have daily, what their on-call was like, etc. In an world full of castles built with toothpicks and elmers glue this came off like it was built with wet cardboard and chewing gum.

https://github.com/ory/kratos ?

Extremely complex and requires running another multiple services. I just want auth, I don't want to set up kubernetes to orchestrate all the components of Ory.

You don’t need k8s, that is overkill. It’s a simple lightweight service that runs in docker or you install bare metal. Ory Kratos will satisfy 90% of use cases that you might have
