It integrates seamlessly into existing Django projects and lets users authenticate through multiple channels: one-time passwords (TOTP), SMS text messages, voice calls, token generator apps like Google Authenticator, or hardware tokens such as YubiKey.\n\nThe package handles the full authentication flow, from user enrollment through verification, and is designed to mirror the user experience of Google's Two-Step Authentication. It includes support for multiple languages and works with Django 4.2 through 5.1 on Python 3.9\u20133.13. An example app is available for testing most features, and documentation is comprehensive.","worth_installing":"Yes. This is a mature, actively maintained package (1876 GitHub stars, recent commits) with no known vulnerabilities, low install friction, and permissive licensing. It solves a critical security problem for Django projects and integrates cleanly with Django's built-in auth framework. Use it when you need production-grade 2FA for a Django application."},"id":"django-two-factor-auth","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/django-two-factor-auth","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/django-two-factor-auth.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/django-two-factor-auth/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2025-09-27","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"django-two-factor-auth","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Complete Two-Factor Authentication for Django"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":3111562,"position":2750,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.18.1"}
