Better Auth
Comprehensive TypeScript auth.
- What is Better Auth?
- Better Auth is an open-source authentication library for TypeScript apps, running on your own server and database.
- What does it do?
- Handles email and password login, social OAuth, sessions, and account linking, with plugins for two-factor auth, passkeys, magic links, organizations, and multi-tenancy. Works across common TypeScript frameworks and ORMs.
- Who is it for?
- TypeScript developers who want auth living in their own codebase and user table rather than delegating identity to a hosted provider.
- What are the alternatives to Better Auth?
- Auth0, Clerk, and Kinde are hosted identity services with managed user stores and admin dashboards. SuperTokens and Logto are open source and self-hostable, but run as a separate service alongside your app.
