BBSQue Auth0 Authentication

Inspiration

I was inspired by the aesthetics of old BBSes, and wanted to try to mimic them using php

What it does

Currently all it is is an authenticator that uses either GitHub, Google, or an email and password to sign in to the site.

How we built it

I created a homepage in php, then I worked on creating an Auth0 project using their tutorials, having the login redirect to the php pages I created

Challenges we ran into

Currently, the redirection is unfortunately not working. I can get it to work on the default urls for redirection, but having it actually load my BBSque pages is not quite there yet

Accomplishments that we're proud of

I have very little experience in web development, and this is also my first hackathon, so I'm proud that I was able to get anything working in the time we had.

What we learned

I've been learning a lot about web servers and authentication. Auth0 seems to be a very useful tool, so I'll likely use it in future web-based endeavors.

What's next for BBSQue Auth0 Authentication

I need to get the login to actually redirect to the php page I created.
