Custom Algorithm
This framework provides dozens of signature or encryption algorithms. If your application uses a custom algorithm or if another algorithm has been recently approved in the JWT context, it may be interesting to use it with this framework.
Hopefully, this is very easy. In the following example, we will create a class to use the ChaCha20 + Poly 1305 (IETF variant) encryption algorithm as a Key Encryption Algorithm.
