This post is about a product for NATS. I presume you are talking about the roadmap after the 2.10 release?

Yes that reads correct. The `sub` would a NATS user public nkey, the `iss` would be the NATS account public nkey (either the issuer nkey in config-mode or existing nkey in decentra…

Auth callout is post-NATS client authentication, so it would not solve the "auth web flow" for authentication. Instead, the resulting token from that would be set as a cookie that …

In fact it does all of these things now properly! STAN (NATS Streaming) was deprecated two years ago in favor of a new embedded subsystem called JetStream: https://docs.nats.io/nat…

Nice, have you come across NATS? https://nats.io . The server natively supports WebSockets. There are many clients including Deno, Node, WebSockets, Rust, Go, C, Python, etc. In ad…
