Is this development targeting Desktop and Laptops only? Opening a browser? In headless servers? So, the mentioned production setting with Mongodb and pgsql means, manage and automate hundreds of instances. So, as admin do in every Server open a browser, manually connect, fill in manually the web authentication ... I suggest, while we are at playing in browser, add a google Captcha and find the buses and bicycles.

Candid is designed to provide federated authentication for web services. The identity providers it is intended to be used with require the use of protocols like OpenID-Connect. These protocols generally necessitate users performing the actual authentication steps with a web-browser.
