Ship WebAuthn registration and login on the API layer, now to update the frontend, documentation, and landing page so people know how to use it
#simpleotp
Struggling with signature verification issues for webauthn tests and spent all day trying to figure it out. Think I must be signing the wrong data or similar. Trying to get this done correctly so I can launch passkey support
#simpleotp
Been silent on simpleotp.com for a bit because I was stuck on a testing issue, but finally figured out a way to way to test webauthn by patching the credential data!
#simpleotp
Discover and fix webauthn-related security hole during testing. Now including a session ID with each request to prevent malicious users from mucking with other people's credentials
#simpleotp
Finished the webauthn registration endpoint and checked to see that it's working. Should have webauthn support live for simpleotp.com by some time next week!
#simpleotp
Start implementing webauthn registration logic for simpleotp.com - it's a lot more intuitive than I expected
#simpleotp
Wire up "replacement auth method" field to be able to support WebAuthn/passkeys (still WIP)
#simpleotp
Update the admin dashboard and API to include fields to be used for WebAuthn/FIDO2 (not yet functional)
#simpleotp
Start investigating adding "passkeys" support to Simple OTP because a fellow indiehacker is asking for it and it's becoming more popular anyway. Found a nice open source library that should work!
#simpleotp
First ever sale made from a Product Hunt launch for simpleotp.com - turns out PH leads to some results after all!

Re-launched simpleotp.com on Hacker News now that it's a one-time fee. Check it out here and let me know what you think: news.ycombinator.com/item?id=…
#simpleotp
Make a sale from a completely random person now that I changed Simple OTP to be "one time payment, source code included" - I'm a believer in the one time payment model now, feeling inspired by @marc_louvion and @dhh who did the same
#simpleotp
Updated the product for simpleotp.com to be a one-time payment for source code access, inspired by @dhh and the Once movement. Check it out!
