Yes JWT using angular authentication , it has to fit as custom based code , thank you Nate,great.

JWT is great. Maybe you can show how to connect it with Nodejs rest api?

I would be interested in an example of authentication integrated into an existing system of single sign on based on header parameter or cookie obviously with rest facilities without persistent user session. also how to hide the application menu items dynamically based on user profiles

JWT with use of Passport.js and Express would be nice. Optionally in combination with Auth0...

It seems is the focus of this post, aside from the theory of (inner works) the implementation doesn't seem that hard, maybe you guys want to see how it plays with ?

There are so few tutorials on this out there, except from StormPath and Auth0. Surely there's a non-paid way to do this? I'd especially like to know how to integrate into the very powerful node.js Passport framework.

I feel like this topic is so broad that it's own book may be necessary. Outside of JWT and AuthGuard, is the really much more you can write on the topic as it concerns angular?

JWT would be of high interest. maybe something like the "runner up" alternative ...
