## About Hanko

## What is Hanko?

Hanko is an open source authentication platform designed for the passkey era, built for developers who need to add user login and identity management to their applications without relying on passwords.
What Hanko does
Provides passwordless authentication built around passkeys
Handles user identity management for applications
Offers a complete authentication solution rather than a single login component
Is distributed as open source software
Who uses Hanko
Hanko is aimed at developers and engineering teams who are building the login and identity layer of a web or mobile application and want to move users toward passkey-based sign-in instead of traditional passwords. It fits projects where authentication needs to be handled as a core part of the product rather than bolted on as an afterthought.
For a maker building a new application, Hanko addresses the authentication piece of the stack directly, giving a starting point for passwordless login and identity management rather than requiring that logic to be built from scratch. Its open source nature means teams can inspect, adapt, and integrate it into their own development workflow as needed.
