Rolling an internal oAuth server

One of the things I’ve been using v0 heavily for is generating small, internal utilities. Things like our time tracking, expense logging etc. I need to put these behind some for of authentication, and ended up spinning up a little Rails oAuth server with email whitelisting.

It works a treat; I can just prompt v0 to wrap any apps in the <OidcProvider /> and have prototypes immediately protected.

You could probably use something off the shelf, like auth0, but I wanted an excuse to model out a “magic link” flow with FlowState xD
