If you register a user-verifying authenticator like that supports FIDO-CTAP2, you can login without password.
Click the "Password-less login" button on the login view and the pop-up asking an authenticator will be opened. Please give a gesture to the authenticator to finish the authentication. You will be automatically redirected to the dashboard.
1.3.3. Password authentication
If you checked "Allow password authentication" at user registration, standard password authentication is available.
Please fill the username (email address) and password on the login view and click the login button. If the authentication succeeds, you will be automatically redirected to the dashboard.
