Authman
Authentication server backend for the Authman application
Authman is a repository containing the server-side component of the Authman project. It implements the backend authentication logic and templated views in a PHP-based stack and is intended to be paired with a separate frontend application.
Key Features
- PHP-based server implementation with templated views and frontend assets
- Project contains Blade templates and SCSS styles for server-rendered UI
- Includes JavaScript/TypeScript assets for client-side behavior
- Designed as the backend component for a companion Authman application
- Minimal repository focused on server code and backend responsibilities
Use Cases
- Provide a self-hosted authentication backend for projects that integrate with the Authman frontend
- Reference implementation for building or extending PHP-based auth services with templated views and frontend assets
- Development and testing of server-side authentication flows in a PHP stack
Limitations and Considerations
- Repository README is minimal and refers to a separate frontend application; documentation and usage instructions are limited
- No explicit information in this repository about supported protocols (OAuth2/OpenID Connect/SAML) or required database/backing services
Authman is primarily the server-side piece of a larger Authman project. It is suitable for developers who want a PHP-based authentication backend but will likely require pairing with the companion frontend and additional configuration or documentation to deploy in production.
