Pocket ID

Pocket ID is an easy-to-use OpenID Connect Certified™ and OAuth 2.0 provider that lets users sign in to your applications with passkeys.

→ Try out the Demo⁠

The goal of Pocket ID is to be a simple and easy-to-use. There are other self-hosted OIDC and OAuth 2.0 providers like Keycloak⁠ or ORY Hydra⁠ but they are often too complex for simple use cases.

Additionally, what makes Pocket ID special is that it only supports passkey⁠ authentication, which means you don’t need a password. Some people might not like this idea at first, but I believe passkeys are the future, and once you try them, you’ll love them. For example, you can now use a physical Yubikey to sign in to all your self-hosted services easily and securely.
