How does one use JOSE to authenticate vis-a-vis DID Documents?

@logangirvin @thehenrytsai can you point Nathan and others to the relevant docs/guide for how this particular auth flow work using JOSE/JW*s?

You can look at the documentation checked in here.

Note that GitHub doesn't render the sequence diagram and tables so I have pasted it in hackmd.io for your convenience.

@logangirvin @thehenrytsai was there a reason for the readme being placed in a sub-directory like this? If not, and this constitutes the main docs for the project devs need to use it, I think we should move it to the top level.

@csuwildcat, it was not intended to be a readme as is but no pushing back if we want it to be, though GitHub doesn't render some of the syntax used currently.

Hello the link is broken. I wish to leverage this for a next generation identity system -- are there any considerations?

hi @nathanawmk, @logangirvin has since updated the documentation and structure so the link is no longer there. README is now available and it has the links to necessary documentation, feel free to raise any questions if/when you find the documentation is unclear. FYI, the earlier document I pointed out is now moved to here, the hackmd.io link still works as is.
