accountkit-server

Account Kit helps you quickly register for apps using just your phone number or email address — no password needed. It's reliable, easy to use and gives you a choice about how you sign up for apps.

accountkit-server is a nodeJS module based on node-accountKit to handle accountkit server side implementation.

The main change between this and node-accountkit is replacing callbacks with promises which allows for the use of async/await functions when compiled in ES6+

Other optimizations have been made too.
