What else does the
.middleware()
do aside from initializing the auth routes? If I want to implement my own routes, I can skip this and use the recipe APIs directly right? What will I miss by doing so? My scenario is that I don't want all of the extra fields, validations and post sign in and up handlers all cluttered within the
supertokens.init()
.
