SORRY FOR THE ADS...

But someone has to pay the bills, and sponsors are paying for it. I insist on not turning Code Boxx into a "paid scripts" business, and I don't "block people with Adblock". Every little bit of support helps.

NOTES

At the time of writing, Web NFC is only supported on Android devices.
Register an NFC token for users first. Admin, users, select “NFC login” in the user list.
That’s about it. Give the NFC token to the user, they can now “scan to login”.
