Add authentication to your Express backend with Better-Auth integrations and predictable project structure.
Teams convert better when they see what they get before signup. This is the practical output path from Zuro commands.
$ npx zuro-cli init my-mvp ✓ Express + TypeScript scaffolded ✓ Helmet, CORS, env validation ✓ Logger + health route ready $ npx zuro-cli add auth ✓ Auth routes configured ↳ auto-installs database + error-handler if missing
Auth module wires required dependencies automatically when missing.
Session flows and auth routes are scaffolded with clear, editable files.
You can extend or replace auth logic without framework constraints.
Authentication is often the first module that triggers hidden complexity in backend projects. Session handling, token lifecycle, credential storage, and route protection patterns all create edge cases that are hard to debug after launch. Teams need a module that solves the baseline correctly while keeping extension points explicit.
A practical auth module should integrate with existing database and validation patterns rather than introducing isolated abstractions. This is critical for long-term ownership: teams can inspect every generated file, adapt business rules, and align auth behavior with product requirements such as invite flows, account linking, or role checks.
From an SEO and conversion perspective, this page should communicate real implementation confidence. Developers evaluating auth tooling are looking for clear dependency behavior, predictable file output, and migration flexibility. The surrounding docs and command examples are structured around those trust signals.
Use these pages to go from evaluation to implementation with practical examples.
No manual setup required. The auth flow can trigger required database setup automatically.
Yes. Generated auth files are plain TypeScript and meant to be customized.
Start with one module, validate your product path, and expand features as demand grows.
