Does anyone know of any competing/more established libraries that offer similar features?



Here: https://passwordless.net/ (It's for Express + NodeJS)

Open source, you can use whatever you want to get the code to the user. It's from Mozilla.


Unfortunately I think the biggest advertised feature is the ability to authenticate users by phone number which this doesn't do.


It does and it's designed for it. Found this example online: https://github.com/rbudiharso/smsauth-example Basically you can use any delivery mechanism with it you'd like


My apologies. This wasn't obvious from the main project page.


At Nexmo we've been powering similar solutions for a lot of apps through our SMS API. However, we've just released a higher-level API that leverages our SMS / Voice APIs to make this kind of number verification easy to implement. Ours includes multiple deliveries and channels (falls back to a voice call if needed). We're looking for early adopters, would love to have you take a look: https://docs.nexmo.com/index.php/verify
