A lightweight, secure authentication library for PHP that handles registration, login, email verification, password resets, and session management. It is framework-agnostic and database-agnostic, working with MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, and SQLite via PDO.

Use cases

  • add user login and registration to a PHP website
  • implement secure password authentication without building it from scratch
  • handle password reset and email verification flows in PHP
  • manage user sessions and remember-me login persistence
  • add authentication to a framework-agnostic PHP project
  • store user credentials securely in MySQL, PostgreSQL, or SQLite

When to choose

  • you need drop-in authentication for a plain PHP or framework-agnostic project
  • you want a peer-reviewed, security-focused alternative to hand-rolled auth
  • your stack is PHP with a SQL database via PDO

When to avoid

  • your framework already provides a mature built-in auth system
  • you need OAuth, SSO, or social login out of the box
  • you are not using PHP
