Reading up and research on PHP auth - trying to find a simple, lightweight, framework-agnostic and database-agnostic library that's in between hashing/salting my own auth, or PHP_USER_AUTH vs overkill like Auth0. Maybe this (or something like this)? - github.com/delight-im/PHP-Auth #indiejourney #decodingcoding
