Make Auth great again with Ory
summary
Demonstrates delegating authentication to the API gateway using Kratos, Oathkeeper, and Traefik to eliminate per-service session checks and shared auth libraries. Ships a runnable Docker Compose repo with a React frontend, Postgres, mail server, Jaeger and a WhoAmI service. Access rules in Oathkeeper validate cookie sessions, identity schema enforces attributes and leaked-password checks, and the demo runs end to end with a minor verification return‑URL glitch.
