Higgins 1.0 Released
The Eclipse Foundation today announced the 1.0 release of Higgins, the first real software framework that enables developers to integrate user-centric identity technologies and protocols into their applications. It’s multi-protocol and
platform-agnostic architecture is key in making the process of integrating identity into their applications attractive to developers of web applications.
It’s a big achievement, and the first concrete step towards an identity layer for the internet. My congratulations to Paul, Mary and all the contributors to the Higgins project.
