Notes

This example demonstrates using passport in NextJS API routes for OAuth connection flows.

Takes example of the fact that Next's micro-based API routes are compatible with connect-style middleware, with a little work.

Most of the meat of the example is in how we configure passport to work as NextJS middleware.
