    This comment summarises the pitfalls accurately but the conclusion, not so much. JWT makes a great solution in many cases (some cases, you'll see that JWT is the only good solution). For starter, think about the use case where a different service(other than your authentication service) wants to verify the identity of your user to enable access to certain resources. And you need to do that without asking your authentication service. As a valid JWT can only be created by your authentication service but can be verified for it's authenticity by anyone, JWT makes a great solution here. And this is exactly why usage of JWT in oAuth2 has become a standard. I have created a similar demo for oAuth2 well, you may want to look at it once you finish the JWT demo.
