Is this suited for github?

  • Yes, this is suited for github

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

better-auth has 37 dependencies from 27 maintainers. 23 of the dependencies from 18 dependencies are due to WebAuthn support.

Extra dependencies add a large amount of risk due to all of the recent supply chain attacks in the npm ecosystem. 2/3 of this risk comes from WebAuthn support, which is a feature many users don't need in their app

Describe the solution you'd like

Move WebAuthn support to a plugin

Describe alternatives you've considered

Make WebAuthn dependencies optional peer dependencies

Additional context

No response

Hey yeah it's already planned that each plugin will be a separate package, it should land in 1.4.
