Introduction | Pocket ID
pocket-id.org
Pocket ID is a simple OIDC provider that allows users to authenticate with their passkeys to your services.
The goal of Pocket ID is to be a simple and easy-to-use. There are other self-hosted OIDC providers like Keycloak or ORY Hydra but they are often too complex for simple use cases.
Additionally, what makes Pocket ID special is that it only supports passkey authentication, which means you don’t need a password. Some people might not like this idea at first, but I believe passkeys are the future, and once you try them, you’ll love them. For example, you can now use a physical Yubikey to sign in to all your self-hosted services easily and securely.
