User Authentication with Passport and Koa

This technical tutorial provides a step-by-step guide to setting up local username/password authentication in a Koa (Node.js) application. It covers integrating Passport.js and passport-local strategy, using bcrypt.js for password hashing, PostgreSQL for user data storage, and Redis as an external session store. The article follows a test-driven development approach and is part of a series on Koa and Sinon.
