Connect/Express middleware that provides JWT-based session management with Redis backing. Version 1.0.5 is the latest stable release; the package is in maintenance mode with no recent updates. Key differentiators: uses JWT for cookie-less clients, stores session data in Redis with TTL management, and allows custom JWT claims. Unlike express-session, it does not rely on cookies and can be used across services. The module reserves the 'jti' claim for Redis key mapping, and Redis handles session expiration rather than JWT TTL.
