Hi everyone!, I'm looking for a way to add authentication to my Astro project, I tried astro-auth (not very convinced) and now I'm looking Lucia docs, but I'm not sure if there is a better way to add authentications, any suggestions?

+1 for following the Lucia guides and "Rolling your own" using Oslo and Arctic

This is what we did in StudioCMS, allowing us full control over every aspect of our system 😄

For a example of some of how our system works checkout our code: on github

Okey c:, so Oslo and Artic could be a good choice?, I got confused when I searched for Lucia and came across with Oslo 😆

Lucia used to be a library, that created a small wrapper around Oslo and Arctic (Arctic is used for oAuth) 😅 he recently deprecated the library, and is has since converted it into a guide and best practice, since Lucia was only around 300 lines of code. that can easily be implemented by the actual devs instead of the package, and adding tons of flexibility.

Better-Auth is also a great library as well!

Does BetterAuth allow for server side cookies etc? or does it do it all in the browser / client?
