Auth0 offers two ways to implement login authentication for your applications:
  • where users log in to your application through a page hosted by Auth0.
  • Embedded Login where users log in to your application through a page you host.
For the vast majority of use cases, we recommend Universal Login, but you can also use Client-Initiated Backchannel Authentication to authenticate users with a decoupled authentication flow.
