Authboss

Authboss is a modular authentication system for the web. It tries to remove as much boilerplate and "hard things" as possible so that each time you start a new web project in Go, you can plug it in, configure and be off to the races without having to think about the hard questions like how to store Remember Me tokens, or passwords.

Modules

Each module can be turned on simply by importing it and the side-effects take care of the rest. However each module has storage requirements and configuration that's required.
