Summary

Descope Explorer is a tool designed to simplify the process of testing and demonstrating authentication flows, allowing users to easily integrate their Descope Project ID, Flow, and theme for quick demos. It addresses challenges faced by community members who previously needed to build new projects or configure existing ones to demo authentication flows. The platform provides a user-friendly interface with features such as a dropdown for selecting different authentication flows, a download button for exporting flows in JSON format, and options for customizing Project ID and Flow ID settings. Users can toggle between dark and light modes, and the tool also supports direct URL editing for flow customization. Descope Explorer facilitates authentication by displaying user session JWTs and decoded payloads, and offers access to various SDKs and sample applications that can be cloned for development purposes. The platform aims to help users efficiently test and iterate their login flows, encouraging developers to join their community, AuthTown, and stay informed with updates on identity and authentication.
