    If it need documentation means things are over the line when comes to complexity and I should scale down / simplify. :)

    Complexity and over-engineering are a serious problem, I really try to keep it as simple as possible so I don’t have to waste time managing it, dealing with updates and potential security issues. Simple code/infrastructure breaks less and has less potential insecure points.














  • Hmm… some people are going to say that basic auth would be insecure, I’m not going to be there because in this particular case it’s about the same thing.

    However, this might be easier to configure and manage permissions than basic auth. Also this works cross-domain and basic auth will require full re-auth for every domain. Another obvious advantage is that at some point I plan to integrate 2FA.
