How do I run Better Auth on a Mac?
Better Auth is an open-source, framework-agnostic authentication and authorization library for TypeScript — email/password, social sign-in, sessions, MFA (TOTP/passkeys), organizations and a plugin ecosystem, running inside your own app rather than as a separate hosted service. It owns your tables in your own database (Postgres/MySQL/SQLite via Prisma/Drizzle/Kysely); npm install better-auth and wire it into your framework's routes. There's no server to install or monitor here (it's a library in your backend) — this entry captures it for the AI Administrator and keeps any provider secrets it needs in the Keychain; the database it stores users in is monitored via that database's own pane.
With FrontierStack you can install or connectBetter Auth from its Customer Identity catalog, then monitor its health, ports and certificate alongside the rest of your stack.
Run it all from one Mac app.
FrontierStack installs, monitors and secures the whole stack — locally and across your fleet — from a single native macOS app.
