In my experience, NextAuth is very easy and has everything built-in. Lucia needs more setup, it's server-only, and you need to manually create all endpoints for it, but with it auth logic is a lot easier to extend. In one project with nextauth I wanted to allow only users with curtain domain in the email to sign up, and I had to look up some event in the docs. With Lucia it's a lot simpler, you just go to the sign in endpoint and add an if statement. Both lucia and nextauth work great with approuter
