CORS Credentials and Cookies Not Sent
Authenticated API requests fail because cookies aren't sent. CORS blocks credentials even after preflight succeeds.
Credentials mode and CORS headers must align for cookies to transmit.
Error Messages You Might See
Credentials mode is 'include' but Access-Control-Allow-Credentials header is missing
Access-Control-Allow-Origin cannot use wildcard
Common Causes
- Client not sending credentials: 'include' in fetch
- Server not sending Access-Control-Allow-Credentials: true
- Access-Control-Allow-Origin set to * (incompatible with credentials)
- Cookie SameSite=Strict blocking cross-site cookies
How to Fix It
Client: fetch(url, { credentials: 'include' }). Server: response header Access-Control-Allow-Credentials: true. Set Access-Control-Allow-Origin to specific domain, NOT *. Ensure cookies have SameSite=None; Secure for cross-site. Configure Spring CORS with allowedOriginPatterns and allowCredentials=true.

Basel Issmail
’m a Senior Full-Stack Developer and Tech Lead with experience designing and building scalable web platforms. I work across the full development lifecycle, from translating business requirements into technical architecture to delivering reliable production systems.
My work focuses on modern web technologies, including TypeScript, Angular, Node.js, and cloud-based architectures. I enjoy solving complex technical problems and helping teams turn product ideas and prototypes into working platforms that can grow and scale.
In addition to development, I often collaborate closely with product managers, business analysts, designers, and QA teams to ensure that solutions align with both technical and business goals.
I enjoy working with startups and product teams where I can contribute both as a hands-on engineer and as a technical partner in designing and delivering impactful software.

I build and fix web apps across Next.js, Node.js, and DBs.
Comfortable jumping into messy code, broken APIs, and mysterious bugs.

Vlad Temian
15+ years shipping production infrastructure for startups. Former CTO at qed.builders (acquired by The Sandbox).
Cursor ambassador and agentic tooling builder.
I've scaled systems, automated deployments, and built observability tools for AI coding workflows. I specialize in taking vibe-coded apps from broken prototype to production-ready: fixing Supabase auth/RLS, Stripe integrations, deployment pipelines, and cleaning up AI-generated spaghetti.
I build tools in this space (agentprobe, claudebin, micode) and understand both sides: how AI generates code and why it breaks.

I've been working at a large software company named Kainos for 2 years, and mainly specialise in Platform Engineering. I regularly enjoy working on software products outside of work, and I'm a huge fan of game development using Unity. I personally enjoy Python & C# in my spare time, but I also specialise in multiple different platform-related technologies from my day job.
You don't need to be technical. Just describe what's wrong and a verified developer will handle the rest.
