Description
Authentication library for Phoenix, and other Plug-based, web applications.
Phauxth is designed with Phoenix 1.3 in mind, but it can also be used with
older versions of Phoenix and any other Plug-based application. It is
designed to be secure, extensible and well-documented.
For a general overview of some of the goals of Phauxth and its basic usage,
