    The link you shared is for Implicit? Implicit does not use client secret. Does this mean IndieAuth is more similar to Implicit than Auth Code but is more secure as the client id has to be redirect uri?

    Regular OAuth 2.0 also supports the Authorization Code flow with no secret. In fact, many companies recommend Auth Code w/no secret instead of Implicit.

    IndieAuth is like taking Auth Code w/no secret and adding back some layers of security because of the client ID being a URL.

      Got it. I read the link you shared but I must have missed the part about Auth Code flow with no client secret. Sorry.
