Hi @KalleHallden I know that login feedback for users were raised in that PR
but for seucrity reasons i think will be good to use OWASP recommendations for that kind of labels (ie: dont inform user that used credentials match/dont match to existing accout)

source of correct and incorrect responses

  1. https://cheatsheetseries.owasp.org/cheatsheets/Forgot_Password_Cheat_Sheet.html
  2. https://cheatsheetseries.owasp.org/cheatsheets/Authentication_Cheat_Sheet.html#incorrect-and-correct-response-examples

Great. I guess we can change Login error responses to "Login failed; Invalid email or password."

But for Account Creation,

As of now, we dont have any verification email sent to user mail, so do we have any suggestion for that?

Hmm, it is not good to give users access to system without veryfication of email account. I know that application is in early development stage, but maybe it is good point to think about it :)

Yeah I think this is a good thing to correct as well.
