Hi HN! Co-Founder of Permit.io here, I’ve built access-control to my products, thousands of times throughout my career - and at no point did I want to.

We adopted OPA, created OPAL.ac (open-source), and Permit.io on top - so no developer would have to build permissions again.

To truly solve this problem end-to-end we’re releasing Permit-Elements (https://permit.io/elements) - embeddable UIs providing the interfaces you need so your end-customers can control access-control (e.g. user-management, audit-logs, approval flows, permission requests, api-key management, …)

Check out the full tutorial: https://youtu.be/xGYdDF65lkQ

The solution highlights: - Authorization for Authorization (who can control who controls permissions) - Security (auditing, real-time decision making and meeting industry standards) - An easy integration (generate and embed a JS snippet)

There’s a lot more to do, we’d love your feedback on Permit in general, this feature, and others. Chat with us on Slack (https://bit.ly/permit-slack)

Thanks, Or Weis
