Via AI Assistant#
Ask your AI assistant:
- "Use the NextAuth.js pattern from Bootspring"
- "Apply the Bootspring NextAuth pattern to my project"
Key Considerations#
- Use JWT strategy for serverless deployments since database sessions require persistent connections
- Always validate email verification status in sign-in callbacks
- Hash passwords with bcrypt (minimum 12 rounds) when using the credentials provider
- Wrap your app in SessionProvider for client-side session access
- Use a database adapter in production for persistent sessions and account storage
