Hi there,

I've been following this community on Twitter for some time now and I'm really liking the content and the welcoming atmosphere.

I'm a (web)developer for 15 years now. Started with PHP, moved on to C#/.NET and for the last two years NodeJS.

I like the idea of learning by teaching: you can only fully understand something when you are able to explain it to someone else.

In the coming period I will be investigating setting up an authorization server (token server) with OAuth2 and OpenID Connect. My plan is to write some articles about it, which will help me comprehend the problem space, and hopefully help some other poor souls.

Welcome! That sounds a lot like what I'm planing to do. Just joined a few days ago.

cool, can't wait for your articles, I am also currently studying OAuth2.

A little bit I am dreaming of an auth server, that can be installed and run like
npm install -g authserver-name && authserver.

You have your first follower 👍
