2 years ago All the code here is open source (apache license), and re-implementing it is not likely to ruffle any feathers because it's a re-implementation on a different platform. I say not only go for it, but feel free to point people to it. The examples in the book will remain in Node, though.
Hello and thank you so much for your very helpful book and useful examples!
I'm trying to learn about OAuth to use in a split-stack Ruby on Rails/React client application (i.e., front and back end deployed separately). In order to further my learning, I'm re-implementing your exercises in Rails and React. (Auth servers and protected resources are Rails monoliths and clients have a separate front and back end.)
I was going to push my work to a private repo so as to avoid stepping on your toes or creating copyright issues, but it occurred to me that maybe you/your readers would find it valuable to have these examples available publicly, especially since having a fully separate front and back end for the client application is a really common pattern that does introduce additional complexity.
Maybe you don't care but I just wanted to check if you/your publisher would prefer this stuff be private or if your readers might find it valuable.
