Amazon Cognito - without hosted UI

[scarsam]

👋 I'm planning on testing out Amazon Cognito Provider. Does anyone know if it requires me to use their hosted UI to use this together with next-auth?

I would like to save the users through some other provider (email only or social login) with my own UI but have the user show up in AWS user-pool. This to make it easier to authorize DB calls inside AWS.

This is possible. I've been able to have users login by verifying their auth details with Cognito. This gives me the control on what the form looks like. I would recommend one of these libraries to set it up.

I am not quite sure if those libraries can be used with next-auth. As far as I understand if I use one of these libraries then I will have to take care of session management in the Next.js app, but instead I want next-auth to take care of session management for me. I am relatively new to Next.js, next-auth and AWS Cognito so please correct me if I am wrong 🙂
