How to leverage Django’s authentication system in Next.js?

Asked By: Anonymous

I am developing a web application which has backend written in Django (using Django REST Framework for API) and frontend written in Next.js.

I was considering implementing user authentication in the frontend using tools like PassportJS or Auth0. But, is there a way to leverage Django’s own authentication system and avoid using third-party libraries like the ones mentioned above?
