# Which Problems Are Solved The distinction between Example Applications and SDKs has not been clear. In the SDKs section a lot of Example applications where listed. Also In the SDKs it was not really clear what the SDKs actually are. Also some examples and skds are outdated and not well maintained anymore. # How the Problems Are Solved - Moved all example app guides to the Example Applications Section - Restructured SDKs Nav --> SDKs & Integrations: Frontend & Mobile, Backend & API, Management API Clients - Removed unnecessary / outdated guides - Remove ids in framework.json for frameworks which shouldn't be rendered in console ## Todos: - Update SDKs Introduction page - Add links to common oidc libs for most used frameworks --------- Co-authored-by: Mridang Agarwalla <[email protected]>

## Overview
|
|
|
|
[SvelteKit](https://kit.svelte.dev) is a framework for building web applications with flexible filesystem-based routing and a unified approach to server-side and client-side logic. This example demonstrates how to integrate **Zitadel** using the **[OAuth 2.0 PKCE flow](https://oauth.net/2/pkce/)** to authenticate users securely and maintain sessions across your application.
|
|
|
|
#### Auth library
|
|
|
|
This example uses **[@auth/sveltekit](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@auth/sveltekit)**, the SvelteKit integration of **[@auth/core](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@auth/core)** (formerly NextAuth.js). Auth.js provides a complete authentication solution that handles the [OpenID Connect](https://zitadel.com/docs/apis/openidoauth/endpoints) protocol, manages [PKCE](https://oauth.net/2/pkce/) code generation and verification, performs secure token exchange, and provides session management utilities across your SvelteKit application.

## What this example demonstrates
|
|
|
|
This example provides a complete authentication implementation showing how to secure a [SvelteKit](https://kit.svelte.dev) application with [Zitadel](https://zitadel.com/docs). Users start on a public landing page and click a login button to authenticate through Zitadel's [authorization server](https://zitadel.com/docs/apis/openidoauth/endpoints) using the **[PKCE flow](https://oauth.net/2/pkce/)**. After successful authentication, they're redirected to a protected profile page that displays their [user information and claims](https://zitadel.com/docs/apis/openidoauth/claims).
|
|
|
|
The example demonstrates route protection using [SvelteKit's server-side load functions](https://kit.svelte.dev/docs/load) that verify [session state](https://zitadel.com/docs/apis/openidoauth/endpoints#token_endpoint) before rendering protected pages. Authentication state is managed through [@auth/sveltekit hooks](https://kit.svelte.dev/docs/load) that verify [session state](https://zitadel.com/docs/apis/openidoauth/endpoints#token-endpoint) before rendering protected pages. Authentication state is managed through [@auth/sveltekit hooks](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@auth/sveltekit), which integrate with [SvelteKit's hooks system](https://kit.svelte.dev/docs/load) that verify [session state](https://zitadel.com/docs/apis/openidoauth/endpoints#token-endpoint) before rendering protected pages. Authentication state is managed through [@auth/sveltekit hooks](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@auth/sveltekit), which integrate with [SvelteKit's hooks system](https://kit.svelte.dev/docs/hooks) to provide session data throughout your application. The implementation includes automatic [access token refresh](https://kit.svelte.dev/docs/load) that verify [session state](https://zitadel.com/docs/apis/openidoauth/endpoints#token-endpoint) before rendering protected pages. Authentication state is managed through [@auth/sveltekit hooks](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@auth/sveltekit), which integrate with [SvelteKit's hooks system](https://kit.svelte.dev/docs/hooks) to provide session data throughout your application. The implementation includes automatic [access token refresh](https://zitadel.com/docs/apis/openidoauth/grant-types#refresh-token) to maintain long-lived sessions without requiring users to re-authenticate.
|
|
|
|
The logout flow implements **[federated logout](https://zitadel.com/docs/guides/integrate/login/oidc/logout)** with proper CSRF protection, terminating both the local application session and the Zitadel session before redirecting users back to your application. Custom error pages provide user-friendly messages for authentication failures, and the example includes comprehensive security headers configured through [SvelteKit's hooks](https://kit.svelte.dev/docs/hooks).

## Getting started
|
|
|
|
### Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
Before running this example, you need to create and configure a PKCE application in the [ZITADEL Management Console](https://zitadel.com/docs/guides/manage/console/console-overview). Follow the PKCE application setup guide to:
|
|
|
|
1. Create a new Web application in your [Zitadel project](https://zitadel.com/docs/guides/manage/console/projects-overview)
|
|
2. Configure it to use the PKCE authentication method
|
|
3. Set up your redirect URIs (e.g., `http://localhost:3000/auth/callback/zitadel` for development)
|
|
4. Configure post-logout redirect URIs (e.g., `http://localhost:3000/auth/logout/callback`)
|
|
5. Copy your **Client ID** for use in the next steps
|
|
|
|
> **Note:** Make sure to enable **Dev Mode** in the [ZITADEL Management Console](https://zitadel.com/docs/guides/manage/console/console-overview) if you're using HTTP URLs during local development. For production, always use HTTPS URLs and disable Dev Mode.
|
|
|
|
### Run the example
|
|
|
|
Once you have your Zitadel application configured:
|
|
|
|
1. Clone the [repository](https://github.com/zitadel/example-auth-sveltekit).
|
|
2. Create a `.env.local` file in the project root and configure it with the values from your [Zitadel application](https://zitadel.com/docs/guides/manage/console/applications-overview). **Use these exact environment variable names:**
|
|
```
|
|
SESSION_SECRET=your-very-secret-and-strong-session-key
|
|
SESSION_DURATION=3600
|
|
ZITADEL_DOMAIN=https://your-instance.zitadel.cloud
|
|
ZITADEL_CLIENT_ID=your_client_id_from_console
|
|
ZITADEL_CLIENT_SECRET=your-randomly-generated-client-secret
|
|
ZITADEL_CALLBACK_URL=http://localhost:3000/auth/callback/zitadel
|
|
ZITADEL_POST_LOGOUT_URL=http://localhost:3000/auth/logout/callback
|
|
NEXTAUTH_URL=http://localhost:3000
|
|
```
|
|
Replace these values with:
|
|
- A secure random string for `SESSION_SECRET` (generate using: `node -e "console.log(require('crypto').randomBytes(32).toString('hex'))"`)
|
|
- Your actual Zitadel instance URL for `ZITADEL_DOMAIN` (the issuer URL)
|
|
- The **Client ID** you copied when creating the application
|
|
- A random string for `ZITADEL_CLIENT_SECRET` (Auth.js requires this even though PKCE doesn't strictly need it)
|
|
- The **redirect URI** you configured in the PKCE setup (must match exactly)
|
|
- The **post-logout redirect URI** you configured
|
|
3. Install dependencies using [npm](https://www.npmjs.com) and start the development server:
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm install
|
|
npm run dev
|
|
```
|
|
4. Navigate to `http://localhost:3000` to verify the authentication flow end-to-end.
