Flask Authentication Service with JWT and OAuth2

This Flask-based authentication service utilizes JSON Web Tokens (JWT) to securely authenticate users and OAuth2 for authorization. It uses Redis to store invalidated access tokens, providing an added layer of security by ensuring that only valid tokens are accepted for access. The service is designed for scalability and can handle high traffic, with built-in support for handling multiple users and user roles. The authentication service is built with security and performance in mind, providing a fast and reliable way to authenticate and authorize users in any application. It follows OAuth2 protocol for authorization and allows users to grant third-party applications access to their resources without sharing their credentials.
