It was designed with security, performance and simplicity in mind, and it protects your tokens from critical vulnerabilities found in other libraries. Please star this open source project to attract more developers so that together we can improve it even more! Ask AI about jwt. Google's free Code Wiki for jwt is generated from this repository and stays in sync with it, commit by commit. Browse the architecture with diagrams, or ask its chat plain-language questions about the codebase and get answers grounded in the actual source. For an assistant that writes jwt code with you, Plexon AI, the desktop assistant built by the author of jwt, ships the jwt skill built in; see AI Tools for jwt below. The Book A fourteen chapter book on this library lives in book/ , rendered to one self-contained HTML file and printed to PDF. It is not a reference. go doc is the reference, and it is generated from the source so it cannot drift.

Chapter 12 is the honest list of this library's sharp edges. Read the PDF (121 pages), or start with the preface and read the chapters as Markdown: Chapter What it covers --- --- --- Preface Who the book is for, and how its code was checked 1 What a Token Is The three segments, base64url, and what a signature actually proves 2 Signi","default_branch":null,"files":null,"tree":[],"storefront":"/r/kataras","claimed":false,"request_supported":{"post":"https://gitbuyer.com/r/kataras/jwt/request-supported","requests":0},"note":"indexed from public GitHub; nothing is for sale on this page.
