Your question

I wonder is there a way to use NextAuth just for handling cookie session token management etc without using a provider?

Say I have a custom service that my app uses to handle authentication with an OAuth provider such as Auth0 or sth else, my app directs user to there and does authentication and redirect back with access & refresh token. I just want to skip the part of implement create httpOnly cookie and persist those tokens part by utilising NextAuth. Is that possible?

What are you trying to do

Use the custom authentication app to get the Oauth token and redirects back to my app, use NextAuth to handle the management of set cookie session / token part.
