Oslo is a zero-dependency TypeScript collection of auth-related utilities covering JWTs, OAuth2, password hashing, OTP, WebAuthn, cookies, encoding, and CSRF protection. It is runtime-agnostic (Node.js, Deno, Bun, Cloudflare Workers) but has been deprecated in favor of packages published under the Oslo project.

Use cases

  • create and verify JWTs in a TypeScript app
  • implement OAuth2 client flows
  • hash and verify passwords
  • add TOTP two-factor authentication
  • verify WebAuthn passkey assertions
  • parse and serialize cookies
  • generate cryptographically strong random values
  • add CSRF protection to requests

When to choose

  • you need lightweight, runtime-agnostic auth primitives without pulling a full auth framework
  • you are building custom auth on edge runtimes like Cloudflare Workers or Deno
  • you want typed, zero-dependency crypto, JWT, or WebAuthn helpers

When to avoid

  • starting a new project, since the package is deprecated in favor of the split Oslo project packages
  • you want a batteries-included auth solution with sessions and user management
  • you need support for Node.js 16/18 without polyfilling Web Crypto
