A Complete Guide To Session Management In Next.js tl;dr: "We’re going to produce a simple two page site that allows us access to a protected page if we are logged in. Fundamentally, this is an authentication setup, but we are going to set it up using JSON Web Tokens (JWT) that we’ll store on the client.

Here, we want to build session management in Next.js without using any authentication library to show you what is really happening under the hood.”
