Remix Auth is a complete open-source authentication library for Remix and React Router applications, inspired by Passport.js and built on the Web Fetch API. It uses a strategy pattern where each authentication flow (form login, OAuth2, GitHub, etc.) is provided as a separate npm package plugged into a shared Authenticator class.

Use cases

• add login with username and password to a Remix app
• authenticate users with OAuth2 providers like GitHub
• implement server-side session-based authentication in React Router
• build custom authentication strategies for a Remix app
• replace Passport.js in a modern Fetch API-based stack

When to choose

• you are building a Remix or React Router app and need server-side authentication
• you want a Passport.js-like strategy ecosystem with full TypeScript support
• you need pluggable auth flows (form, OAuth2, social logins) with minimal setup

When to avoid

• you need client-side-only authentication in a non-Remix SPA
• your framework is Next.js or another non-Remix/React Router stack
• you need a batteries-included auth service with built-in user management rather than a library
