JWT Sessions

Build stateful sessions based on JSON Web Tokens

JWT Sessions launched on April 28, 2018 with 7 votes, #1,113 of 2,753 launches that month and more than 50% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 8 years on.

What it does

Main goal of this Ruby gem is to provide configurable, manageable, and safe stateful sessions based on JSON Web Tokens. It's designed to be framework agnostic yet is easily integrable so Rails integration is also available out of the box. Each session is represented by a pair of tokens: access and refresh.

XSS/CSRF safe JWT auth designed for SPA. Contribute to tuwukee/jwt_sessions development by creating an account on GitHub.

I believe that I'm close to succeeding. I'd love to hear your thoughts on what I can do to improve what I have so far.

    Jwt.is – JSON Web Token Debugger2023 · ▲38

    The team at Rownd is excited to announce https://jwt.is, an updated take on JSON Web Token debugging. Like most developers, we've used jwt.io for years, but it lacks a number of useful features that would make it even more convenient. We're building on the shoulders of those who've come before us. :-) In addition to the basic JWT decoding and signature verification, we've added things like: - Verification using JWK endpoints - Locally stored history of tokens and keys - Verification for EdDSA signatures - Detection of common token providers (e.g., Google, Apple, etc) - Dark mode!…

  • A stateful UI runtime for reactive web apps in GoApr 2026 · github.com · ▲14

    Doors: Server-driven UI framework + runtime for building stateful, reactive web applications in Go. Some highlights: * Front-end framework capabilities in server-side Go. Reactive state primitives, dynamic routing, composable components. * No public API layer. No endpoint design needed, private temporal transport is handled under the hood. * Unified control flow. No context switch between back-end/front-end. * Integrated web stack. Bundle assets, build scripts, serve private files, automate CSP, and ship in one binary. How it works: Go server is UI runtime: web application runs on a…

  • Talanoa▲345

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
