To get your own Neon Auth instance, powered by Better Auth, then visit https://get.neon.com/OXPYD7k There's many things to love about Better Auth. It's open source, self deploy-able, can be used as part of a monolith or dedicated service, and is EXTREMELY developer friendly. One of the best parts, in my opinion however, is it's fantastic plugin system, which even the logo suggestes. By adding plugins to better auth, you can turn it from a simple authentication provider into a powerful framework for the foundation of any good product. Of course, there are many different plugins out there, and knowing which ones to use can sometimes be lost. Therefore, I decided to share 10 of my favorite Better Auth plugins, ones which just save so much time.
