Finished LNURL-auth and session management on https://minesats.gg/.
Should be stable now. Everyone, feel free to test!
(There isn't much to do on the website after login, though)
However, some wallets like WoS don't work. I think I need to mention supported wallets like SN does.
But really annoying that some wallets pretend like they support LNURL-auth but they don't (?)
Also, can you guess which website inspired my design? ;)
Lol.
Gigi was similarly inspired I think ... although it's deviated a bit: https://lightninglogin.live/
I remember someone launched a project once that even had "waiting for you..." prompt and I lol'd because it's pretty bad UX technically.
reply
it's pretty bad UX technically.
Why?
I want to replace polling with server-side events to prevent the network tab filling up with errors lol.
Then I can also add a more slick UI/UX like showing "Authentication successful" for a short while before redirecting.

I just meant the "waiting for you" part. It should be something less confrontational and more conversational educational.

Ah, gotcha
Would be hilarious if the prompt gets more-passive aggressive over time

Oh, it's called "server-sent events" actually:
