oidc-client-ts
A TypeScript library for OpenID Connect and OAuth2 protocol support in browser-based JavaScript applications.
What is oidc-client-ts?
oidc-client-ts is a TypeScript library that implements OpenID Connect (OIDC) and OAuth2 protocols for browser-based JavaScript applications. It solves the problem of secure authentication and authorization in client-side apps by providing robust token management, session handling, and support for modern OAuth 2.1 standards.
Frontend developers building single-page applications (SPAs) or browser-based apps that require secure authentication with identity providers like Auth0, Okta, or custom OIDC/OAuth2 servers.
Developers choose oidc-client-ts for its TypeScript-first design, comprehensive protocol support (including PKCE), and focus on security by deprecating outdated flows like implicit grant. It's a maintained fork of the popular oidc-client-js with active development and modern standards alignment.
