...The session service is the main interface to the library. It provides methods for authenticating and invalidating the session as well as for setting and reading session data. The session store persists the session state so that it survives a page reload. It also synchronizes the session state across multiple tabs or windows of the application so that e.g. a logout in one tab or window also results in a logout in all other tabs or windows of the application.

OAuth2orize is a Node.js module for implementing OAuth 2.0 authorization servers, providing the server-side machinery needed to support standard OAuth grant types such as authorization code, implicit, resource owner password credentials, and client credentials. It integrates with Express and similar frameworks, letting developers define how clients are authenticated, how authorization decisions are made, and how tokens are issued, all through a clean, extensible API. The module encourages a modular design where individual grant types are plugged in as needed, enabling only relevant flows for a given application, such as supporting third-party app access without exposing user credentials. ...

passport-facebook is a Passport strategy for authenticating users with their Facebook credentials using the OAuth 2.0 protocol, enabling Node.js applications to let visitors log in with their Facebook account easily. It manages the redirection to Facebook’s login page, the authorization code exchange, and the retrieval of basic profile information, reducing the boilerplate developers would otherwise write to integrate with Facebook’s API manually. When used with Express and Passport, the strategy triggers redirects and callback handling automatically based on configured routes, so developers can focus on application logic like user onboarding and account linkage. ...

...It plugs directly into the Passport middleware ecosystem and lets developers define precisely how users are looked up and verified against stored credentials, which can be adapted to any database or user store. Instead of managing authentication logic manually in every route, passport-local centralizes the process through a strategy interface where you provide a function to find and validate the user. Once integrated with an Express-based application, it handles reading credentials from requests, invoking your verification logic, and managing success or failure flows, all while cooperating with session middleware to serialize authenticated users.
