This project contains a certified OpenID Connect reference implementation in Java on the Spring platform, including a functioning [server library](openid-connect-server), [deployable server package](openid-connect-server-webapp), [client (RP) library](openid-connect-client), and general [utility libraries](openid-connect-common). The server can be used as an OpenID Connect Identity Provider as well as a general-purpose OAuth 2.0 Authorization Server.

The authors and key contributors of the project include:
Here at Gresham, we use this component for a base for the auth server, our developing branch is 1.3.x and any feature branches should be made off of that branch.
In order to release a new version of the open-id-connect component, run the `Build with Parameters` on Jenkins ticking the release checkbox as part of the build.
This will release the next release version (the current version less the -SNAPSHOT), run a build with the tests and then bump the 1.3.x branch to the next snapshot version of the repository
