• Authentication: Login/Logout, "Remember Me" (Cookie), and Magic Link (one-click login).
• Social Login: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Google, LinkedIn (via OpenID Connect), Amazon, GitHub.
• Security & 2FA:
  • One-Time Password (OTP) for Two-Factor Authentication.
  • Webauthn (Yubico Key, TouchID, etc.) for Two-Factor Authentication.
  • Account lockout policy after failed attempts.
  • Password strength meter.
  • reCaptcha v2 and v3 support.
• Authorization: Integrated RBAC (Role-Based Access Control) and Superuser support via CakeDC/auth.
• Extensibility: Easily extend Controllers, Models (Tables/Entities), Mailers, and Templates.
