@authon/svelte

Drop-in Svelte authentication with reactive stores — Auth0 alternative

Prerequisites

Before installing the SDK, create an Authon project and get your API keys:

• Create a project at Authon Dashboard

  • Click "Create Project" and enter your app name
  • Select the authentication methods you want (Email/Password, OAuth providers, etc.)

• Get your API keys from Project Settings → API Keys

  • Publishable Key (pk_live_...) — use in your frontend code
  • Test Key (pk_test_...) — for development, enables Dev Teleport

• Configure OAuth providers (optional) in Project Settings → OAuth

  • Add Google, Apple, GitHub, etc. with their respective Client ID and Secret
  • Set the redirect URL to https://api.authon.dev/v1/auth/oauth/redirect

Test vs Live keys: Use pk_test_... during development. Switch to pk_live_... before deploying to production. Test keys use a sandbox environment with no rate limits.

Install

npm install @authon/svelte
