Lead Developer @ Moriyama | Package Producer | Umbraco MVP | Class of 2018
Nik Rimington discusses the development of HCS Passwordless, a library for Umbraco that facilitates passwordless authentication through NuGet packages. The library includes options for Magic Links, email OTPs, and WebAuthn passkeys, aiming to enhance security in response to rising phishing threats. The series will explore the library's design and implementation details.
Nik Rimington encountered a Null Reference Exception when submitting an Umbraco Form due to a query string parameter named "model" conflicting with automatic model binding in .NET Framework. The solution involved creating a custom controller and renaming the action parameter to "umbFormModel," resolving the issue.
In the first week of Hacktoberfest 2024, Nik Rimington introduces a new package for Umbraco v13, the Accessible Media Picker, which enhances the core Media Picker by adding fields for accessibility, such as alt descriptions and decorative flags. The package aims to improve media management for editors and developers. Contributions are welcomed.
