Hello,

I found this implementation and successfully integrated it with [Authentik](https://goauthentik.io/). However, it utilizes separate Docker images for the backend and frontend:

>
> Taiga plugin for openid authentication . Contribute to robrotheram/taiga-contrib-openid-auth development by creating an account on GitHub.

Do you recommend sticking with this implementation, or are there any official implementations for OpenID/OAuth integration that you suggest?

Thank you.

Hi @wajdyessam

There is a plugin that we use in some installations that require integration with OIDC auth
