I implemented it a few months ago and it was kind of easy to setup and a very powerful service.
But I think that it's a good thing to know how to setup at least basic HTTP and JWT Authentication itself before using a Saas for authentication. For example, JWT Auth implementation isn't simple and a bad implementation can lead to security issues on both server and client side. So, implementing the solution by himself is a good way to learn how it works and to learn the best pratices. ;)
