Security is not optional. This version supports HTTPS enforcement, refresh tokens, PKCE (Proof Key for Code Exchange), and modern JWT signing. It’s built to handle multi-tenant setups, microservices, and complex API gateways.

Integration is fast. The endpoints are predictable. /authorize, /token, /introspect—each delivers what the spec promises. You can test locally, connect to CI pipelines, and deploy to production without breaking flow.

Because it’s the community version, you control the code. You can patch, extend, and brand it. No licensing traps. No closed-source lock-in. Continuous contributions from developers around the world keep it sharp.
