Helios is an authentication middleware embracing PSR-7. It's purpose is to keep the identity completely request dependent, as well as avoiding the use of server-side session through the use of [JSON Web Tokens](https://jwt.io/).

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

```
$ composer require dasprid/helios
