Building an app with Stytch and PlanetScale

Reed McGinley-Stempel's blog post details the process of building a lightweight user dashboard using Stytch and PlanetScale, focusing on authentication and database management. PlanetScale, a serverless database platform founded by Vitess co-creators, allows developers to branch their database, facilitating non-blocking schema changes. The tutorial guides readers through setting up PlanetScale's CLI, creating and configuring a database, and managing branches for development and testing. It also covers integrating Stytch for user authentication, employing Email Magic Links, and managing user sessions with Stytch’s Session Management API. The backend setup, using Next.js, demonstrates connecting to PlanetScale databases, creating and managing user tables, and ensuring secure user sessions. The guide includes practical steps for implementing user authentication and session management, encouraging developers to explore the app's frontend experience and connect with the community for further development insights.
