I'm trying to learn authentication for a web app that I'm writing. All I want is a login and password, and to make sure the user can't write/edit each others posts unless they are logged in.
I'm not sure I fully understand it. But it seems that Torii is better if you need to do Facebook or Google authentication, whereas simple-auth is better for just logging in. Is that correct? Is there other things Torii can do that Simple-Auth can't? Are there things that Simple-Auth can do that Torii can't?
Actually, as you can read in this link, it makes sense to use both together:
Simple Auth is more about maintaining session/session events, providing a framework for authenticating a strategy, and authorizing requests. Torii is more about interfacing with these external authentications. So, it’s not as though Simple Auth and Torii could not exist side by side.
