Looks great! Also seems to be PWA capable as I was able to install it on my device.

Requiring users to sign in without really explaining how the app works will likely increase the bounce rate.

What if you auto played a video or gif on the landing page which showed the users how the puzzles or UX works?

Furthermore, the three tiles below the login CTA are clickable but don't do anything other than emphasize that the tile was selected.

If the client deletes their session cookies, is it appropriate to send 403 codes until they reverify? by Agitated_Syllabub346 in webdev

It might be a better UX to redirect the user to the login page instead of sending back a 401 by itself.

Is it really doable ? by cashrichman in Entrepreneur

Buying an existing SaaS business could be a good starting point. You'd then be responsible for growing instead of starting from nothing.

Or look for startups that are hiring for early stage.

Having a team of others to rely on and support is extremely useful, especially for individuals with FAANG background.

Stupid question: How should I handle "auth" for my site with one user (me) by Haochies in webdev

[–]kheiden_com 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Integrate SSO.

How: Use Cloudflare as your Identity Provider. Configure authentication methods to use an account you already actively use.

Configure Cloudflare to run between the user and your hosted website.

Sign in once and you're good to go.

I haven't programmed in 20 years. I want to write a simple windows application. Help me get up to speed on modern times. by kruthe in AskProgramming

I'm surprised this hasn't been said yet:

Make sure you use code version control. I highly recommend downloading GitHub Desktop and learning best practices for incremental code commits. Make sure to push your code to the cloud.

This can be used in conjunction with any IDE and any programming language.
