Authentication with Supabase

Authenticating users is an important part of building web applications. Supabase offers a range of authentication options to help developers build secure applications quickly and easily.

Supabase offers authentication through OAuth providers such as Google, Facebook, and Twitter, as well as through email and password authentication. With email and password authentication, Supabase uses bcrypt to hash passwords, making them difficult to crack.

Supabase also offers custom authentication options, which allows developers to use their own authentication systems. This can be useful for companies with existing authentication systems that they want to integrate with their Supabase applications.

One of the benefits of using Supabase for authentication is that it comes with built-in support for role-based access control (RBAC). This means that developers can easily control what resources users have access to based on their roles within the application.

In addition to RBAC, Supabase also offers session management and two-factor authentication (2FA) for added security.

Overall, Supabase provides developers with a powerful and flexible set of tools for authenticating users and managing user access within their applications. By leveraging the authentication features offered by Supabase, developers can focus on building great user experiences while keeping their applications secure.
