Re:Ask HN: How many of you are rolling your own auth?

I'm a full time Laravel dev and love Laravel, but it's default auth is one of my least favorite parts. I personally feel like it's abstracted to an extreme, and to the point where you have to take it or leave it wholesale.
On most apps I find myself writing my own register / login / password reset logic, and just using Auth::login($user); to get the user logged in and give them a session.
From that point onwards though, Laravel does a fantastic job and Passport is a god send.
Need high performance swoole can practically compete with go, but you could still put now server intensive services in go or rust.
