Authduck – Playground Server for OpenID Connect Clients
Hey HN I'm currently living my dream, being paid to do what I love: programming, something I've been doing since middle school for over 15 years. In those years doing programming, I’ve always thought that OpenID Connect/OAuth for Authentication is an amazing idea that more programmers should be familiar with. Using (properly configured) SSO may be one of the best security investment made by companies. It also saves a lot of works, both for companies (by delegating user management-related features to third party) and users (by reducing friction when using new services). However, one of…

Hey HN I'm currently living my dream, being paid to do what I love: programming, something I've been doing since middle school for over 15 years. In those years doing programming, I’ve always thought that OpenID Connect/OAuth for Authentication is an amazing idea that more programmers should be familiar with. Using (properly configured) SSO may be one of the best security investment made by companies. It also saves a lot of works, both for companies (by delegating user management-related features to third party) and users (by reducing friction when using new services). However, one of the challenges I encountered when I started learning this was that setting up an OIDC/OAuth server is too much work. I think there should be a better way to let people play with OIDC than creating dummy OAuth client in Github. Then, several months ago I decided that this would be a great excuse to play with Go & HTMX. So I created Authduck. It's an OIDC Server/Provider that you can use to test your OIDC Client. I built it with Go, Echo framework, SQLite, HTMX, Alpine. The app is available as a single executable for Linux, Mac, & Windows, although admittedly I haven’t test it outside Linux yet. Its also available as Docker image via ghcr.io . Currently there is a public instance at https://authduck.fly.dev . You could try it against other OIDC Playground Client such as openidconnect.net or others. Currently it only support Authorization Code Flow without PKCE, but I hope to find time soon to work on supporting other flows. I hope this simple application could be of use to many web developers out there. Please let me know what you think. Regards, Azophy

Hello HN! The day has finally come to stop adding features and start sharing what I've been building the last 5-6 months. It's a bit of CrewAI, OpenDevon, LangFuse/Cloud all in one, providing devs who prefer TypeScript an integrated framework thats provides a lot out of the box to start experimenting and building agents with. It started after peeking at the LangChain docs a few times and never liking the example code. I began experimenting with automating a simple Jira request from the engineering team to add an index to one of our Google Spanner databases (for context I'm the…

Hi HN, I built Eigendrum, a web tool that solves the 2D wave equation for arbitrary shapes so you can hear what they sound like as drums. How it works: * Solves -∇²u = λu using finite element analysis (Kφ = λMφ) on a triangle mesh. * Validated to <0.1% error against closed-form solutions for circles (Bessel zeros) and rectangles. * Sound model factors in strike location, Rayleigh damping, and mallet width. * Includes Kac drums I & II to demonstrate identical sound spectra from different geometries. * No frameworks, build steps, or dependencies. Repo and tests:…
