Hey,I wanted to raise a point regarding the JWT authentication flow depicted in the GIF. The flow shown, termed "Implicit Flow" [1], is no longer recommended and is, in fact, considered deprecated. The preferred approach is the Authorization Code Grant [2], enhanced with the Proof Key for Code Exchange (PKCE) extension [3].

You are supposed to follow cryptographic tradition and name Alice (for 'A') and Bob (for 'B'), not John!
