DjaoDjin-Signup

This repository contains a Django App for user authentication (intended as a replacement for the django.contrib.auth.views pages), and user account pages.

Major Features:

• HTML forms and API-based authentication
• Cookies, JWT, API Keys
• OTP codes

This project contains bare bone templates which are compatible with Django and Jinja2 template engines. To see djaodjin-signup in action as part of a full-fledged subscription-based session proxy, take a look at djaoapp.
