It would be awesome if there was a script/guide on how to migrate from next-aurh to better-auth to make the transition smoother.
I’m mostly concerned about the database side so my users don’t lose access to their data since the data mapping is not 1 to 1, mostly around oauth in my case.
A simple guide would be super helpful.
just a nice to have once it’s stable.

+1 for this, I have the same concerns for my users (especially with the extra data each of them contain)

An automated tool or script might help skyrocket adoption
