Reviewer scorecard
“Best auth DX available. Pre-built components look great, the middleware is solid, and the dashboard is useful.”
“Web standards-first approach means your apps work without JavaScript. Loaders and actions are elegant patterns.”
“Auth is a solved problem you shouldn't be building yourself. Clerk makes it fast and reliable.”
“The merge with React Router v7 is pragmatic. Web fundamentals and progressive enhancement are the right foundation.”
“Authentication as a service is becoming the default. Clerk's component-first approach makes it seamless.”
“Merged into React Router. The ideas live on but the standalone framework identity is fading.”
