Doing Single Sign On between SPAs and Regular Web Apps

SSO sample

This is the example for the SSO article. In here, you'll see how to implement SSO between Single Page Apps and Regular Web Apps using Auth0.

Structure

In this example, we have 3 applications:

• app1.com (single page app)
• app2.com (single page app)
• app3.com (regular web app)

Each application has its own folder in this repository with its own instructions on how to run it.

Running

In order to be able to test SSO correctly, each application must have its own domain. For that, you can edit your /etc/hosts and make app1.com, app2.com and app3.com all point to 127.0.0.1.

For that, open /etc/hosts and edits as follows:

##
# Host Database
#
# localhost is used to configure the loopback interface
# when the system is booting.  Do not change this entry.
##
127.0.0.1 localhost
255.255.255.255 broadcasthost
::1             localhost 
# ...
127.0.0.1 app1.com
127.0.0.1 app2.com
127.0.0.1 app3.com

Once that's done, just run all 3 applications (See specific instructions on each README) and go to app1.com:3000 to start using the applications :).
