Almost every system that runs on the internet and stores user data has an authentication layer. With the API architecture becoming popular nowadays, the complexity of the authentication layer also grew.
This post was made to explain the authentication process between a frontend written in Angular 6 and a backend written in Django 2 using the architecture proposed on my previous post “Separating Frontend from Backend with Angular and Django”.
At web development, things evolve and grow in complexity faster than we can follow. That old way of creating websites where the pages were built only with HTML and if you had to change something you had to go through many pages changing the same thing is something rare nowadays. Now, even to create static websites, we use tools to optimize our work.
On the last years, we had an increase in javascript frameworks and an excellent evolution on the frontend as a whole.
