Talk

Introduction to JSON Web Tokens (JWT)

An introduction to JSON Web Tokens (JWT); what they are and how they can be used for authentication. We’ll briefly cover how you’d traditionally handle authentication in Rails and then go on to show a comparable setup using JWT.

Description

We have one talk currently lined up (and are always open to more):

Nahum is going to introduce us to JSON Web Tokens (JWT); what they are and how they can be used for authentication. He’ll briefly cover how you’d traditionally handle authentication in Rails and then go on to show a comparable setup using JWT.

Please get in touch if you’d like to present something, we’ve had a wide variety of topics and presenters in the past, so don’t feel shy!

Doors open at 5:30pm with talks starting at 6:00pm. We’ll break for pizza and chatting/networking after the 1st talk.

Please join us in the Ruby NZ Slack

Lots of us are hanging out there, you can get an invite from the official Ruby NZ (http://ruby.nz/) site here (http://slack.ruby.nz/). Don’t forgot to join the #wellington channel too as that’s were any discussion and announcement about this meetup occurs.
