Who are you?

This sign-in form lets you log in using your existing profile on other websites! It currently supports the following:

• OpenID (Dreamwidth, Livejournal, Launchpad, Wordpress.com, and many more)
• Twitter
• Mastodon
• IndieAuth

Try pasting your profile URL into the box and we'll see if it's supported.

If you have your own website, you can use that too, by adding an OpenID or IndieAuth provider! I recommend SimpleID 1.0.2 or SelfAuth, or if you're running WordPress you can install plugins for OpenID or IndieAuth!

Design notes

Much of this is specific to how I plan on implementing Authl.

• When a URL is entered into the form, an AJAX request will ask the Authl implementation if it's a supported profile. If so, a "Great!" message will appear (maybe with an explanation of what protocol will be used), otherwise it'll say something like "I don't recognize that, try something else"
• The list of providers would be generated automatically by what's supported by the Authl configuration
• URLs in the provider list can be clicked on, and will fill out the input with the appropriate template and the cursor insertion point where the username goes
