Integrates Auth0 authentication into Express.js web applications using session-based OpenID Connect.
This skill streamlines the process of adding secure authentication to Express.js server-side applications by implementing the express-openid-connect library. It automates the configuration of login, logout, and callback endpoints, manages session-based authentication, and provides standardized middleware for protecting routes. It is ideal for developers building traditional web applications who need a robust, production-ready identity solution with minimal manual OIDC protocol implementation.
