Cierge vs JSON Web Token: What are the differences?
What is Cierge? Easy magic-link authentication. Cierge is an open source authentication server (OIDC) that handles user signup, login, profiles, managerment, and more. Instead of storing passwords, Cirege uses magic links/codes and external logins to authenticate your users.
What is JSON Web Token? A JSON-based open standard for creating access tokens. JSON Web Token is an open standard that defines a compact and self-contained way for securely transmitting information between parties as a JSON object. This information can be verified and trusted because it is digitally signed.
Cierge and JSON Web Token can be categorized as "User Management and Authentication" tools.
Cierge and JSON Web Token are both open source tools. It seems that JSON Web Token with 2.59K GitHub stars and 259 forks on GitHub has more adoption than Cierge with 1.22K GitHub stars and 61 GitHub forks.
