Hashing Passwords and Managing Credentials
Hashing passwords is a safety measure before storing them in a database. It transforms a password into a fixed-length string, appearing random for added security, even if user data is exposed.
In the seed.js
file, we utilized a package called bcrypt
to hash the user's password before storing it in the database. We will use bcrypt
later to compare user-entered passwords with the stored ones.

To use bcrypt
in Next.js Middleware, a separate file named auth.ts
is created. It includes the authConfig
object.
Creadentials Provider
Providers in NextAuth.js are like different login options, such as Google or GitHub. They offer various ways for users to log in.
In the auth.ts
file, we're adding a provider called Credentials
. This allows users to log in using a username and password.
