<p><strong>JSON Web Token</strong> (<strong>JWT</strong>, sometimes pronounced JOT) an internet standard for creating <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSON">JSON</a>-based <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Access_token">access tokens</a> that assert some number of claims. The tokens are signed either using a private secret or a public/private key.</p> <p>In this video I want to discuss the difference between JWT and Session Based Auth, will show examples with Node JS and Postgres. Finally I’ll discuss the pros and cons of JWT.</p>
