simple-cognito-server-auth

A simple library I made to easily allow:

• Easy server side authentication of Cognito users. Basically, the JWT token obtained when logging in as an Cognito user is verified against the user pool and region you decide
• Easily migrate users from an existing user store such as Firebase or Gigya, by allowing to easily "silently" create users in Cognito. "Silently" means the email is transferred and confirmed, but no email is actually send to the user about this migration. I only transfer the email attribute when creating silently.

I use it succesfully in production but migrating from Firebase, but your milage might vary.
