There are no instructions how to build jwt tool. Perhaps, it is worth adding something like this.

cd cmd/jwt
go build -o $GOPATH/bin/jwt

I also found a reference to it: https://github.com/go-swagger/go-swagger/tree/master/examples/composed-auth#prerequisites

go install github.com/dgrijalva/jwt-go/cmd/jwt

@lggomez Every time I look at the number of issues in this package I get a bit overwhelmed.

What's the goal of these "jwt-go: legacy" tags. Is there anything actionable here?

E.g., there is a README on how to install the package as a binary:

https://github.com/golang-jwt/jwt/tree/main/cmd/jwt

I originally migrated the issues which I wasn't sure at the time if were still actionable or not, so those which are deprecated or do not apply here/now may be closed

Gotcha, thanks!

I guess over the next few weeks-months we can tackle them on a case-case and get the number of issues down.
