Does this skill help with backend API authentication?

While this skill handles the frontend token retrieval (getAccessTokenSilently), backend validation should be handled by specific SDKs like express-openid-connect.

Can I use this skill with Next.js applications?

No, this skill is optimized for React Single Page Applications (SPAs). For Next.js, you should use the auth0-nextjs skill which supports App and Pages routers.

Which versions of React are supported by auth0-react?

The skill supports React versions 16.11 and higher, including the latest versions like React 18 and 19.

What is the benefit of using Auth0 Universal Login over embedded login?

Universal Login is more secure as it offloads the login process to Auth0's hosted pages, reducing your application's security surface area and simplifying compliance.
