GoalsΒΆ
Security is HARD. Security is DANGEROUS. Doing authentication via a third-party JavaScript library is STUPID.
Yet authentication via Facebook’s JavaScript library is all over the place.
The better way would be to do authentication via Facebook-flavored OAUTH on the backend. With a well documented, testable project complete with working code examples. The working code examples should be in a dirt simple test project. The test project allows a developer to quickly analyze why facebook auth is failing without the complications of working in their entire system stack.
Our goals:
- Good documentation that will build on readthedocs.org.
- Proper logging for debug and intrusion analysis
- Working test projects.
- Working tests
- Formal releases on PyPI
