OpenID Connect is a simple identity layer on top of the OAuth 2.0 protocol, which allows computing clients to verify the identity of an end-user based on the authentication performed by an authorization server, as well as to obtain basic profile information about the end-user in an interoperable and REST-like manner. `Google <https://developers.google.com/identity/protocols/OpenIDConnect>`_ is a good example of an OpenID Provider.
Django OIDC Provider can help you providing out of the box all the endpoints, data and logic needed to add OpenID Connect capabilities to your Django projects.
