I am not an expert in this area but it more looks like single sign on process. But in our project we use oauth2 and it returns jwt token. Authentication handles by our own idp which we use keycloak. I am struggling to understand between oauth and jwt. any short eexplanation is appreciated thanks

JWT defines the token format. OAuth deals with defining the authorization protocols. OAuth can use JWT tokens for its purpose.

OAuth simplifies authentication. Learning how it works is a good investment.

Thanks for the mention, Saurabh!
