The open-source security / authentication stacks are great at the core of what they do.

... I still want to grab some of the devs who maintain them and shake 'em by the lapels for having really bad DevEx opinions.

Burned two hours this week failing to get basic auth working on a Docker registry instance because I wasn't properly binding the htpasswd file I set up. Time would have been cut in half if the log entry was "user not in the password file" instead of a generic "authentication failed." I'm sure someone was like "hurr durr you can't put that much detail in the logs, attackers could steal the logs and have so much info." Look... Fuck you, my (imaginary) guy, no attackers are gonna steal the logs because the service won't exist because I don't have enough debug info to stand it up in the first place.

Check that out! Ever wandered how to build and manage an @Azure integration? So now you can!

In this tutorial @_StaticVoid uses a HarperDB add-on to connect with Azure AD to authenticate our users. This way we can delegate both the auth & roles to the AD, because we can create our users there & give them custom roles.
