JWT is popular with application developers. I think that's because it's cross-stack. Rails developers already have solutions for 95% of the problems JWT solves in the real world. So do Django developers, and so do Go developers, and so do PHP developers. But there's no lingua franca for this problem.

Developers would like there to be one. Unfortunately, they've chosen a terrible standard --- just really, really bad --- to run with. You are better off doing something by hand than using JWT. If you're at all familiar with my ouvre on HN: that's how bad JWT is. I think you might seriously be better off DIY.
