Start here
Installation
Install the customer wheel, mount Authkits in an existing Django project, run migrations, and verify the host wiring.
Django Authkits docs
Build the complete Django authentication and account-security stack.
Authkits integrates into your existing Django project and keeps you in control of the user model, database, email, deployment, templates, and infrastructure. These guides cover the shipped account flows, MFA, sessions and trusted devices, social authentication, headless APIs, abuse controls, audit history, offline licensing, and production operations.
Documentation guides
Start with the wheel install, then configure only the security and integration boundaries your app needs.
Project setup
Configuration
Use the typed AUTHKITS settings surface for accounts, MFA, sessions, social auth, APIs, updates, and licensing.
UI ownership
Templates and UI overrides
Replace packaged login, signup, MFA, security, social, and email templates with normal Django template overrides.
Account flows
Account lifecycle
Signup, login, email verification, password recovery, password change, and protected account deletion.
Account security
MFA, sessions, and devices
TOTP, email MFA, recovery codes, fresh step-up, trusted devices, session inventory, and remote revocation.
OAuth
Social authentication
Built-in Authkits-managed GitHub and Google providers plus host-configured django-allauth providers.
API
Headless and DRF APIs
Optional session-backed and fully headless flows with revocable bearer credentials, MFA, step-up, and social handoff.
Abuse prevention
Abuse protection
Understand Authkits' persistent account, IP, and challenge abuse controls and trusted-proxy handling.
Monitoring
Audit history
Inspect append-oriented authentication and account-security events without storing raw secrets in metadata.
Commercial
Licensing and activation
Activate a commercial installation once, verify the signed entitlement locally, and keep normal authentication offline.
Production
Deployment and operations
Run Django deployment checks, Authkits security diagnostics, database migrations, pruning, and update discovery.
Quick start
Install the entitled Authkits Django wheel downloaded from your Authkits account.
Terminal
python -m pip install ./authkits_django-<version>-py3-none-any.whlThe base package needs Django, cryptography, and packaging. Social auth and DRF/headless support are explicit optional extras.
