I personally feel so validated after reading this post. The past 3 weeks have been me personally, painfully re-deriving this information independently.

JS FE culture is so fucking obsessed with “modern” instead of what works best.

I am using a very similar stack to the author, but I couldn’t find anything as useful as this post.

I feel like an insane person sifting for information for React. So much SEO spam clogging google over useful content like this article.

Yeah. Session authentication works just fine. Especially on the same domain with only one service.

As soon as you need multiple services it gets trickier.

I found those libraries that provide React components for authentication less useful. I prefer to store authentication state in a redux store and manipulate it with a vanilla client library ("ts-oidc-client" or the keycloak specific one).
