Premier Sponsor: ag-Grid (ag-grid.com).
Authentication can be a daunting topic for many developers, including those of us working in the landscape of web apps. How does cookie-based authentication work? How does token-based authentication work? Don't store tokens in local storage? New SPA authorization best practices from the IETF?! What are the shortcomings and advantages we need to consider when adding authentication to Angular Single Page Applications? I'll also talk about the tools the Angular platform provides out of the box to make adding authentication and protecting routes easier for the developer.
