Rails Directory (From Scratch) - Part 2 - Authentication + Authorization

[@andyhemphill]

Hey. Thanks for the video. Any reason you prefer this auth gem over devise? And have you looked at Auth in Rails 8 - I assume this Gem wont work with Rails 8. Thanks again !

I find it annoying to customize devise over time. Using the authentication-zero gem it just sets up the required code and then you can actually uninstall the gem. You get to control everything which is powerful. I think it also works in Rails 8 but haven't tried it yet. Our latest app (Clipflow) is on Rails 8 and everything works perfectly.

Luckily I don’t have an Australian accent but cheers for the great insights!
