# next-connect and Passport This example creates a basic [CRUD](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Create,_read,_update_and_delete) app using [next-connect](https://github.com/hoangvvo/next-connect) and cookie-based authentication with [Passport.js](http://www.passportjs.org/). The cookie is securely encrypted using [@hapi/iron](https://github.com/hapijs/iron). The example shows how to do a sign up, login, logout, and account deactivation. It utilizes [SWR](https://swr.vercel.app/) to fetch the API. For demo purpose, the users database is stored in the cookie session. You need to replace it with an actual database to store users in [db.js](lib/db.js). ## Deploy your own Deploy the example using [Vercel](https://vercel.com?utm_source=github&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=next-example): [![Deploy with Vercel](https://vercel.com/button)](https://vercel.com/new/git/external?repository-url=https://github.com/vercel/next.js/tree/canary/examples/with-passport-and-next-connect&project-name=with-passport-and-next-connect&repository-name=with-passport-and-next-connect) ## How to use Execute [`create-next-app`](https://github.com/vercel/next.js/tree/canary/packages/create-next-app) with [npm](https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/init) or [Yarn](https://yarnpkg.com/lang/en/docs/cli/create/) to bootstrap the example: ```bash npx create-next-app --example with-passport-and-next-connect with-passport-and-next-connect-app # or yarn create next-app --example with-passport-and-next-connect with-passport-and-next-connect-app ``` Deploy it to the cloud with [Vercel](https://vercel.com/new?utm_source=github&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=next-example) ([Documentation](https://nextjs.org/docs/deployment)).
