In this approach, Feathery hosts your login flow at a separate subdomain from the rest of your site. It's an established approach that's easy to set up without code.
All of our login template previews are set up this way, such as our . To test out the functionality, click Preview Template. You'll log directly into our demo app, and its example code is .
Go to your Feathery settings, then select the Branding tab. Set up your custom Feathery domain, and choose your login flow to be the .
Set up a CNAME DNS record redirecting from the subdomain you want your login flow to live on (e.g. login.company.com) to your custom Feathery subdomain (i.e. company.feathery.io).

Afterwards, you may want to add additional auth functionality to your logged-in site, like redirecting users to the login flow if they aren't logged in, allowing users to log out, and authorizing requests to your server.

Redirect to the login flow if the user isn't logged in
Log the user out manually
Access JWT tokens
