## JSON Web Token Authentication
399399

400-
JSON Web Token is a fairly new standard which can be used for token-based authentication. Unlike the built-in TokenAuthentication scheme, JWT Authentication doesn't need to use a database to validate a token. [Blimp][blimp] maintains the [djangorestframework-jwt][djangorestframework-jwt] package which provides a JWT Authentication class as well as a mechanism for clients to obtain a JWT given the username and password. An alternative package for JWT authentication is [djangorestframework-simplejwt][djangorestframework-simplejwt] which provides different features as well as a pluggable token blacklist app.
