What is JWT and how it works?
JWT (JSON Web Token) is a compact, URL-safe token used to securely transmit information between a client and a server.
It is most commonly for authentication in modern web apps.
A JWT has three parts separated by dots: xxxxx[dot]yyyyy[dot]zzzzz
1. ๐๐๐๐๐๐ซ: Contains the algorithm used for signing the JWT (e.g., HMAC SHA256 or RSA) and the token type (JWT).
2. ๐๐๐ฒ๐ฅ๐จ๐๐: Contains the "claims", statements about an entity (typically, the user) and additional data.
3. ๐๐ข๐ ๐ง๐๐ญ๐ฎ๐ซ๐: Used to verify that the sender and ensure the token hasnโt been tampered with. Generated by taking the encoded header, the encoded payload, a secret, and the algorithm specified in the header, and signing it.
How does it work?
1. The user logs in with credentials.
2. The server validates credentials and generates a signed JWT.
3. The server sends the JWT back to the client.
4. The client stores the JWT token (typically in localStorage or cookies).
5. For future requests, the client includes the JWT in the Authorization header.
Key Benefits:
- Statelessness: No need to store session information on the server, making APIs more scalable.
- Security: Digitally signed to prevent tampering.
- Compact: Small size allows for efficient transmission.
