How does JWT authentication work in Akita?

Can you explain how JWT authentication works in Akita?

Sure! JWT, or JSON Web Token, is a compact, URL-safe means of representing claims to be transferred between two parties. In Akita, it allows secure communication between the client and server.

What are the benefits of using JWT for authentication?

Some benefits include statelessness, scalability, and the ability to transmit information securely between parties without needing to store session data on the server.

How do I implement JWT authentication in my Akita application?

You can implement JWT authentication by creating a login endpoint that generates a token upon successful authentication, and then using that token for subsequent requests.

Are there any security concerns I should be aware of?

Yes, it's important to keep your secret key secure, use HTTPS to prevent token interception, and consider token expiration to minimize risks.
