I keep thinking about wanting to teach folks who are new to tech an approach called “WEB OR NOTHING”. We have to start being a lot less compromising about what tech we use and which platforms we build for.

I avoid doing politics, but enough is enough: Do better! Take back the internet, keep it weird, keep it authentic. To hell with tech feudalism.

To hell with tech feudalism. Do the right thing - you have a say in the matter.

Simple, sure, but one of the most useful ones I can imagine 😁
Our next extension is out today!

🥁

The User Banning Extension is a simple one - it does exactly what it says on the package - endpoints and UI to ban/unban users and automatically revoke sessions of banned users.

Fun fact: I have a small (60ish plants) garden in my front yard. I mostly DIY-ed it around april. The tomatoes kinda went crazy over the last few weeks. This is yesterday's haul.

Ketchup/salsa time, I guess 😅

What The Stack is a conference for everyone

From the OGs who followed Steve Ballmer’s career
To the legends who made that remix
To the new wave who are deep into „aura farming“ (you know who you are).

Because we really believe in that "your product is as good as your documentation" thing :)
🗓️ SuperTokens Launch Week Day 5: We rebuilt our docs from scratch.

Because "your product is as good as your documentation."
It’s a never-ending iterative process, and we feel like we’ve improved ours.

I recently finished "White Line Fever" 📖

Here's what Lemmy Kilmister taught me about B2B sales 👇

Absolutely nothing.

But give it a read, since it's a seminal piece on being authentic (something sorely lacking from social media, professional or otherwise) 😜

Passwords are so 2010. Use passkeys 😎
🗓️ SuperTokens Launch Week Day 4: WebAuthn and Passkeys 🔐

Because typing passwords is so 2019. And because biometric auth is finally ready for prime time.

@supertokens.com - now with an MCP toolkit 🤖
🗓️ SuperTokens Launch Week Day 3: Introducing the SuperTokens AI Toolkit 🤖

Easily one of my favorite projects @supertokens.com . Every once in a while, you might get an absolutely mad idea. It's not often that you get to do those. But the feeling when you actually see it through and shipped - priceless.
CLI Update: Remember that onboarding flow from earlier today?

Our new CLI is what makes those tailored demos possible.

We rebuilt create-supertokens-app to actually create apps you can use as a starting point OR as a learning tool.

A huge shout-out to the @supertokens.com web team for their effort on the new onboarding experience (and for being user 0 for our revamped CLI 😁).
🗓️ Day 2: We rebuilt our onboarding experience from scratch.

The problem: 60% of developers who wanted to try SuperTokens never made it past setup.

Now? 68% completion rate.

Here's what we learned about user onboarding 🧵
