The new authentication method has been implemented within the Java client application, but it's rough around the edges.

  • Remove legacy login GUI and place it within the Web (need it on the web anyways, so why not only on the web)
  • There is no formal flow and GUI if you've forgotten your old VCell password
    • Bring over lost password endpoint to the new API
  • The legacy authentication code that is dead is still within the code base
  • Browser tabs that open but never close when performing authentication
  • Opt out of login (currently seems like you need to login to utilize VCell. There is an offline mode available)
    • Don't want to surprise them with a browser, give some GUI that tells them
  • New users
    • Prompted with webapp to create VCell user
    • Automatically create VCell user from email
  • Social Login
  • Authentication and refresh token stored in JSON locally
    • There's plenty of pro's and con's with this security, clients aren't fully trusted
