    JavaCard is the answer for smartcards. You can find example card software all over github, and you're looking for the JavaCard SDK from Oracle and GlobalPlatformPro to program them: https://github.com/martinpaljak/GlobalPlatformPro. There's even an ant task around somewhere that allows you to use ant tooling. Blank cards with "developer"/default keys can be picked up pretty much anywhere.

    Buy blank cards, write your applet, test in an emulator if you want, push to card, test for real with your software that talks to the card, profit. Be aware that if your goal is to write custom cryptography implementations in Java on the Javacard, these will be prohibitively slow. No need to take my word for it, Niels Duif did exactly this: https://research.tue.nl/en/studentTheses/smart-card-implemen...

    You then have to get the binary (CAP file) and use a tool like GlobalPlatformPro to install it. Hopefully your JavaCard has default authentication keys, otherwise you have to ask for this from whomever you bought it from.

    If you deploy and maintain your own fleet of cards then you could do this. There's an open source FIDO2 applet implementation at https://github.com/martinpaljak/FIDO2

    You could also use PIV/PKCS11 client certificates if it's for internal systems you run - there is reasonably good support for using client certificates in popular browsers from a smartcard, as this is used for DOD CACs.
