This looks interesting! Not sure yet how I feel about the (missing) password authentication. Instead a mail with a login code is sent (which seems to work for this.. )


It makes sense to me. Once you have access to my email, you can just reset almost any password you want, so is the password actually more secure?

As a consumer, it means one less password to remember, and I don't have to worry about how securely they store them.


To be honest, I don't know either. We wanted to try this type of authentication because of the quick-onboarding style.
