Owen Bickford on Passwordless auth

In this episode of the Elixir Mentor Podcast, I'm joined by Owen Bickford, a Software Engineer at SmartLogic and co-host of the Elixir Wizards podcast. Owen shares his journey developing webauthn_components, an innovative library that brings passwordless authentication to Phoenix applications using WebAuthn standards. We dive deep into the technical challenges of implementing secure, passwordless login flows, and how Phoenix LiveView makes it possible to create seamless user experiences. Owen explains the benefits of WebAuthn over traditional authentication methods, common implementation pitfalls, and best practices for deploying passwordless auth in production. Our conversation also explores his experiences in the broader Elixir community, insights gained from co-hosting Elixir Wizards, and his perspective on the evolution of authentication in web applications. This episode offers practical knowledge for developers interested in modern authentication solutions and the growing ecosystem of security-focused libraries in Elixir. #ElixirLang #WebAuthn #PhoenixLiveView #Authentication #SecurityEngineering Connect with Owen: X: https://x.com/owenbickford webauthn_components GitHub: https://github.com/liveshowy/webauthn_components SUPPORT ELIXIR MENTOR Elixir Mentor: https://elixirmentor.com/ siteBrains: https://sitebrains.io 🆘🆘NEED HELP??
