can we say that JWT is an implementation of OAuth2 ?
like for example JPA and Hibernate
JPA is a specification and hibernate is the implementation of JPA
Thanks

JWT means "JSON Web Token" The header contains a token what the server uses. You can generate the token with OAuth2 process. But JWT is not OAuth2 because you can't compare a token approach with a complete authentication flow. In a funny way your question is more like, is the seed a kind of strawberry?

  • in my opinion, technically we cannot make a difference between OAuth2 and JWT because JWT is a Token format and OAuth2 is an authorization delegation, so these are two different things, as you said is more like, is the seed a kind of strawberry – c'est moi Jan 21 '21 at 23:34
