Stupidly Simple Authentication

Inspired by Moron CMS, we developed Picnic Auth!

Picnic Auth Logo

A single user authentication service that is simple and fun - like a picnic.

Just three simple steps

  1. Configure your ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES or .env file.
  2. Run/Host the code.
  3. Authenticate.

Three key features

  1. Simple: A single user.
    Secret and password managed via environment variables.
  2. Secure: Uses BCrypt and expiring JWT tokens.
  3. Lightweight: It's a small and fast service compile and run (everywhere).

Elevator Pitch

Not everyone needs a full-blown authentication service. Sometimes you just need something that works and is easy to set up and protect your website or web application (or just parts of it).

Picnic Auth is a simple authentication service that you can run and use for your website or web application.

The app and user/password is preconfigured via a handful environment variables.

First authenticate with your username and password, then use the JWT token you received.

Runs on every major platform, no need for a database, and no need for a complex setup.
