Report missing tables and columns, and required columns Better Auth never writes, with the change that fixes each. Drizzle and Prisma check their schema definition when the adapter is created; the built-in database runs one introspection query before the first database call. auth migrate and auth generate report the same problems. Also stop mergeSchema from mutating shared plugin schema constants.
Better Auth
Better Auth is a framework-agnostic authentication (and authorization) framework for TypeScript. It provides a comprehensive set of features out of the box and includes a plugin ecosystem that simplifies adding advanced functionalities with minimal code in a short amount of time. Whether you need 2FA, multi-tenant support, or other complex features, it lets you focus on building your actual application instead of reinventing the wheel.
Why Better Auth
Authentication in the TypeScript ecosystem is a half-solved problem. Other open-source libraries often require a lot of additional code for anything beyond basic authentication. Rather than just pushing third-party services as the solution, I believe we can do better as a community—hence, Better Auth.
