Why the hell is supabase using Auth0 for its auth?

by ketanip on 12/8/21, 5:38 AM with 6 comments

Today I decided to try supabase as I am reading about it and is impressed about its features. But when I decided to try it directed me to a Auth0 auth page, this creates a very bad first impression as whether supabase team trusts its auth offering.

What are your views on this guys ?

    It's because we didn't have Supabase Auth when we started. We're migrating now: https://github.com/supabase/supabase/pull/4339

    Auth0 has more features, some of which are very useful for a PaaS/SaaS startup. That might be the original reason.
