Authentication Challenge¶
Summary¶
One of the six obstacles non-coders face when building production apps via vibe coding — dual-authentication systems (e.g., parents + students) can't be solved out-of-box by AI tools, requiring third-party dependencies that AI struggles to stitch together.
Why It's Hard¶
- AI tools handle single-auth well (simple login/signup)
- Multi-role auth (different user types with different permissions) requires complex routing
- Phone/OTP integration needs third-party services
- AI struggles to stitch together multiple auth dependencies
