Android Fingerprint

Here's my sample app and backend from the Android Fingerprint Authentication In Action talk presented at Windy City DevCon and Droidcon NYC 2016.

• Slides are here
• Keynote version with video content

What's in here?

• A sample Android app that demonstrates fingerprint scanning and posting signed requests against a backend.
• A sample backend that illustrates validating the signatures.

Running the Sample Backend

The Android app is configured to talk to localhost:8080, so forward requests into your emulator or device:

adb reverse tcp:8080 tcp:8080

in ./app-backend, run .gradlew bootRun

The backend will run on port 8080 locally.
