Historically, our enterprise readiness solution was passable, but not best-in-market.
This launch changes that. @clerk is now the easiest way to be enterprise ready. It's zero extra lines of code, just toggle a switch and your customers can self-serve.

This rounds out our foundational capabilities for enterprise auth. We now support:
- SSO via SAML or OIDC
- Directory Sync via SCIM or Google's bespoke solution

Best place I worked in terms of code quality was JetBrains.
Every PR I submitted had like 50+ comments from my mentor on how to improve my code.
Some might say it’s a toxic culture. But the key point is those comments weren’t rude. I really felt like my IQ grows two points every second.
Code quality was unmatched there. The only place where the code was really close to being self-documented.

The first step to stopping ADHD stigma is informing others of what it looks like—so I made this handy guide!
Let’s help spread awareness 💖
ALT Infographic titled 'S.T.O.P. ADHD Stigma' by Dani Donovan illustrates common misconceptions and inappropriate comments faced by people with ADHD. It categorizes them into Stereotyping ('Thinking all people with ADHD are the same'), Trivializing ('It's over-diagnosed'), Offending ('You're just being lazy'), Patronizing ('That wasn't so hard, was it?'), and Symptomizing ('You're being oversensitive because of your ADHD').

🚫 React tip: stop using forwardRef() for your custom components.
Just name the `ref` prop something else in your custom component (like `inputRef`) if you can.
ALT Stop using forwardRef() It's really awkward Just name the ref prop something else like inputREf They have played us for absolute fools
