I have a go monolith, htmx for dynamic pages, and SQLite to back it. I really tried to find something for user login / auth / forgot password, but ended up just implementing it myself. Way easier than figuring out APIs and such to integrate with my pages.

https://pocketbase.io is already aligned with what you're working with, and can be embedded in your existing codebase.

Yeah but then I have to figure out the pocketbase API and keep it as a dependency. I'd rather the dependency footprint be as small as possible, accepting the minor tradeoff of having to implement auth myself.
