What is the difference between the FastAPI-User & AuthenticationX?¶

• First, I would like to thanks François Voron For his FastAPI-Users Project he helped me to understand various things relate to authentication Systems, and Building a good, fast, scalable FastAPI application.

Now for the difference, Here I provide more things that FastAPI-User have, for example:

• Cache Services Using Redis.
• Managing Social Authentication Using httpX.
• Building a Helpful Addons like Captcha & String Checker.

• Provide MongoDB as a Database.

  Lately, I see that FastAPI-User Provide more Databases Services and ORM For example SQLAlchemy and MongoDB and PostgreSQL.

  Anyway, Both Projects are very similar, but FastAPI-User is more customizable and easy to use, and AuthenticationX is more customizable and but it is more complex to use 🦥.
