Supertokens vs Authelia?

Open dm17 opened this issue 4 years ago • 3 comments

How do you think about the difference between supertokens and Authelia? Perhaps a word on when/why you see to use supertokens instead of something like Traefik + Authelia.

I figured it would be cool to inquire here instead of getting buried in your HackerNews thread :)

Those tools seem like a lot more low-level, complicated, and powerful than supertokens. The promise of supertokens is to do just what I need and not complicated things with lots of other features and configuration.

Is supertokens 100% self contained / self hosted?

@dm17 I'm not sure what you mean by self container, but we provide a self hosted version and a managed service. The self hosted is 100% free for unlimited users. There is more info on our pricing page
