Hey everyone. Is there a page in documentation explaining how exactly ST uses those
front-token
and
access-token
, which it returns in the header after sign-in ? Not quite sure what this
front-token
is for. Thanks.

hey @nicktgn front-token is essentially a base64 json encoding of the access token's payload.
It's primarily purpose is to be used in cookie based auth where the access token itself is not available for the frontend js to read
SuperTokens is an open source authentication solution offering features like: Different types of login: Email / password, Passwordless (OTP or Magic link based).
