title: Avoid sign-in popup when running hmtl page with node.js
body: <p>We're creating a web app in node.js. For this we're following <a href="https://github.com/moribvndvs/passport-examples/tree/master/example-simple" rel="nofollow noreferrer">this example</a> to see how things are done. Whenever we work with an <code>express-session</code> there is a credential pop-up displayed when accessing the page in the browser.</p>
  
  <p><a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/erMor.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/erMor.png" alt="pop-up displayed"></a></p>
  
  <pre class="lang-js prettyprint-override"><code>  app.use(session({
      proxy: true,
      secret: 'keyboard cat',
      resave: false,
      saveUninitialized: false,
      rolling: true,
      name: 'sid', 
      cookie: {
        maxAge: 20 * 60 * 1000
      }
    }));
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Searching the web I found <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/30802322/node-js-express-session-what-does-the-proxy-option-do">this</a> which talks about setting the <code>proxy</code> setting in the <code>session</code>. However, after trying all options we still get the pop-up. Installing stuff through npm works fine without issue, even loading pages where no <code>express-session</code> are used.</p>
  
  <p>How can we avoid this pop-up? Thank you for your help.</p>
