node-openid-client VS fusionauth-jwt

Nearly all of the platforms implement OpenID, so I ended up rolling my own integration using openid-client to do the third party auth, and then on success, just set your own cookie.

There is quite a bit of hidden complexity to doing different flows. One approach to learning these is to use a lower level library (and perhaps review its code) such as the excellent openid-client.

I've successfully used this one in the past, specifically the Passport strategy. Based on a cursory search it seems like the best current option.

FusionAuth is one of the most decorated and successful open-source IAM solutions. It has been downloaded by more than 10 million customers and hosts over 1 million digital identities.

Ideally, I would recommend not handling and storing passwords yourself. It is preferable to use an identity provider (IdP), such as Azure AD B2C, Auth0, or FusionAuth. These systems are designed to manage your users' identity (including their passwords) so you don't have to. You could also use Single Sign-On with cloud providers.

Concur.

Another data point. Our open source JWT library[0] and Java client library[1] both target Java 8 because that is widely used.

But I rarely see a comprehensive comparison that is current for any of them. And then there are others out there like Teleport and FusionAuth.

This article is based upon a presentation from Dan Moore of FusionAuth.

FusionAuth is a powerful identity and access management platform that makes it easy to add authentication and authorization to your applications. In this blog post, we'll explore how to integrate FusionAuth with a Python Flask application using OAuth 2.0, covering features such as login, displaying user profile information, and logout functionality.
