Okta Auth JS is all about providing the core functionalities for authentication, giving developers control to implement their own authentication flows. 

Okta Sign-In Widget harnesses the capabilities of Okta Auth JS but emphasizes building a ready-made, customizable visual interface for authentication.

Auth JS empowers developers with authentication capabilities, while the Sign-In Widget streamlines the process by offering a pre-built visual experience utilizing those functionalities.
