Auth

This implementation uses httpOnly (server-side) cookie-based authentication. Read more

That means that the JWT Token is never stored on the client. Usually it was stored in localStorage / sesionStorage / cookies (browser), but this is not secure.

Storing the token on a server side cookie is more secure, but it requires a small adjustment on frontend HTTP requests in order to work.

Frontend adjustments

  • If you're using axios then you need to set: withCredentials: true. Read more
  • If you're using fetch then you need to set: credentials: 'include'. Read more
