A Complete Guide To Session Management In Next.js

- Nick Parsons tl;dr: "We’re going to produce a simple two page site that allows us access to a protected page if we are logged in. Fundamentally, this is an authentication setup, but we are going to set it up using JSON Web Tokens (JWT) that we’ll store on the client. This will give the user a live "session," so once they have logged in, they can continue to access the protected page, until the token and session expires."

It’s built into every authentication library you are using, and seamlessly allows users to stay logged in, use different tabs, and stay secure while they are using your app. But because it is abstracted away by auth systems, it’s also opaque. How does session management work to keep track of your usage? Here, we want to build session management in Next.js without using any authentication library to show you what is really happening under the hood.”
