Userbase is the easiest way to add user accounts and data persistence to your static site. All Userbase features are accessible through a very simple JavaScript SDK, directly from the browser. No backend necessary.
@ridderingand_ As long as you have the ability to put some JavaScript on the page, this will work. Webflow's custom code feature allows that. I'm looking forward to try a demo on Webflow once I get some free time.

What are the advantages of this over Auth0 or Firebase Auth? Less complex to implement?
@bradledford Mainly, simplicity, end-to-end encryption, and everything being 100% open source (backend + SDK).
In a next release, we'll allow exporting all data to a self-hosted Userbase backend to allow people who outgrow us the ability to run this themselves fully in their control.
@rdlou End-to-end encryption is one of the main features of the product. Since the key is user-controlled, there will always be something that the user must keep and never lose. For this first version, we chose to make that thing the user’s own password.
Other end-to-end encrypted apps (such as password managers) have the same requirement. Sometimes the password is resettable, but you have to keep another key. But there’s always something that would lock you out if you lose it.
