Two-factor authentication

Hello, Any plan featuring two-factor authentication soon in lb? If not, any recommendations what are best npm packages to use for that purpose? Thanks!

Any update? wondering if you have two-factor authentication already in-place or have a near-future plan to implement? Thanks!

It’s a really good suggestion. We just implemented otp verification in one of our projects, but it was not authentication.

Do you have any specific use case ? 2-factor auth is a broad topic. If you can share some use case, we may discuss that. Let me know

Ultimately our use case is to allow authentication only after trusting the device. So for a first time login through a new device, the user will be directed through the 2FA. User may choose to send the verification code to either an email or a phone, then after verifying the code, user will be allowed to login, and that device will be added to that user's trusted devices.

@SouravSF can you try sharing your OTP solution here ?
