March 12, 2019
Understanding Facebook/Google Authentication with Spring Boot 2.x Demo (Hands-On)

We are happy to announce that Gladwin Burboz will be our special guest for this month's meeting.

Some sites has the feature to login with existing Facebook/Google credentials using OAuth/OpenID Connect technology. Gladwin will provide a step-by-step tutorial to develop a simple Spring Boot 2.x web application that uses Facebook/Google login (authorization code flow). He will then help you understand the underlying protocol by analyzing the HTTP traffic which will help you to use this technology with any other OAuth or OpenID Connect provider.

Prerequisites for this hands-on workshop are:
  • your fully charged laptop
  • JDK 8+
  • Maven
  • your favorite IDE
  • Spring Boot
Meetings are held every second Tuesday of the month at the Dorothy Young Center for the Arts, Room 106, at Drew University starting promptly at 6:30pm. Meetings are open to the public, and visitors are encouraged to join ACGNJ.
