Love the idea, nice execution and good explanation of what this does and why. I wrote it down on my ‘things to try’ list. Good luck with the project.

We're currently moving multiple projects from Sentry to Bugsink, and so far it's looking great, thanks for making this @vanschelven :)

No hate on Sentry by the way, but we (and some of our clients in the Netherlands) also like to have a European alternative, and it's a big bonus that this has a very low switching cost.

if you need any help, or run into any issues, please reach out to me - glad to help!

Indeed @vanschelven, django-hidp (Hello, ID Please) is our newly open-sourced full-featured authentication system for Django projects that we’ve just soft-launched. We were getting ready to post this on HN, but since this is here now, I thought we might just chime in on the discussion.

Current status of django-hidp is we’re still refining the documentation and building the website, but the core functionality is solid, and already in use for quite a lot of our clients. As such, we would say it's ready for evaluation by interested Django developers.

So, if you’re interested in a comprehensive authentication system for Django projects, django-hidp offers:

- comprehensive authentication: user registration with email verification, login, password reset, and more

- OpenID Connect (OIDC) support: built-in support for integrating with providers like Google and Microsoft

- One-Time Passwords (OTP): based on django-otp, with flexible flows and policies

- rate limiting: protects against brute-force attacks

- Content Security Policy (CSP): helps prevent cross-site scripting and other code injection attacks

- standalone OIDC Provider: can be configured to act as its own OIDC provider

- and a lot more...

Designed with OWASP best practices in mind, django-hidp aims to provide a secure and flexible solution for user authentication in Django projects. Without having to reinvent any wheels (no pun intended) and combining slews of dependencies together into a coherent whole. We've already done that quite a lot of times in the past, and now we finally sat down to that work for you, and build an opinionated, batteries-included application that can be used in all Django projects.

If you have any questions, or would like to know more, please reach out to me.
