create-authenik8-app is a CLI tool that generates a production-ready authentication backend with JWT, OAuth, RBAC, and Redis-based token storage, built around a core Identity Engine. It aims to save developers weeks of setup time by providing an opinionated, secure auth system starter, though the core engine is closed-source.

Target audience: backend devs
