VoidAuth is a self-hosted Single Sign-On solution that aims to be easy to setup and use while feeling seamless to your users. Release v1.1.0 brings a few new features I have been working on and am excited about:
- Passkey-only Users, the option on sign-up to use a passkey instead of a password.
- Admin Notification Emails, so admins know when they have new tasks such as user registrations to approve.
- Approval Emails for New Users, so new users awaiting approval know when they have been.
- DEFAULT_REDIRECT back to your main page for invitations, logouts, etc.
- and more!
But passkeys so often call for your Windows login (for those on Windows); doesn’t that only give more power to Microsoft?
You can store passkeys in (and use them from) a password manager instead of the OS’s secret vault. I think most major password managers support this now - Bitwarden definitely does.
Absolutely. But passkeys themselves are an open standard, so the implementation is different depending on device, browser etc. I dont use Windows, I dont know how it works there. I dont even use passkeys a lot in general, mostly due to it not being used on that many sites. I still think the technology pretty interesting and will be more relevant in a few years.
I think “identities” used on Gemini (at least the way they are implemented in Lagrange browser) are the best implementation of a similar idea, but, you know, it’s only supported in Gemini.
