NPM package for verifying and decoding AWS Cognito JWT tokens.
About this Project
cognito-jwt-verifier is an NPM package for verifying and decoding AWS Cognito JWT tokens.
I first published it to NPM in 2018, when there weren't any good libraries for specifically dealing with AWS Cognito JWT tokens. In 2021, AWS released their own NPM package for this purpose (aws-jwt-verify), and I recommend using it instead.
