-User authorization module.
+Token-based authentication (also known as
+[JSON Web Token authentication](https://jwt.io/))
+is a new way of handling authentication of users in applications.
+It is an alternative to
+[session-based authentication](https://security.stackexchange.com/questions/81756/).
 
-**The plugin is in active development.**
+The most notable difference between the session-based and token-based authentication is that former relies heavily on the server.
+A record is created for each logged-in user.
+
+Token-based authentication is stateless - it does not store anything on the server but creates a unique encoded token that gets checked every time a request is made.
+
+Unlike session-based authentication, a token approach would not associate a user with login information but with a unique token that is used to carry client-host transactions.
+Many applications, including Facebook, Google, and GitHub, use the token-based approach.
