The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
You can find the implementation source code in the following GitHub repository
To add JWT authentication to our ToDo application, we'll be using the Golang-jwt library. The golang-jwt package simplifies the implementation of JWTs in Go applications, offering a suite of convenient functions that abstract away the complexities associated with token creation, verification, and management.
JWTs, or JSON Web Tokens, serve as compact and self-contained data structures for transmitting information securely between parties. JWTs specify the token type, contain claims about an entity, and ensure integrity through cryptographic signatures.
At that point consider exploring our solution, Permify. It's a Google Zanzibar-based open-source authorization service that helps to build scalable authorization systems.
Now, let's dive into the fun part – creating our basic ToDo application using the powerful Gin framework. This section will walk you through the steps, breaking down the code into manageable snippets.
