Blog Post: Phoenix auth in 2024: password and provider based auth with phx.gen.auth
Hi! 
I wanted to refresh my knowledge on how to mix phx.gen.auth with local password users db, as well as OAuth providers such as Github, and wrote a guide on this in the end.
Hope it helps in some confusion around the topic I have seen on Elixir Forum!

@slouchpie thanks for a peer review! 
Indeed a grave mistake on my part. Now updated.

A swift and honourable response. You have my respect.

This guide uses :rand.bytes/1 to generate a password.
not cryptographically strong
The auto-generated code they are discussing uses :crypto.strong_random_bytes, just like the erlang docs recommend.
It is easily changed, but this is meant to be an auth guide.
