Browser extensions could be used to give access to the private keys or signing with the private key while visiting a website.\r\n\r\nDoes webid/solid work like that?\r\nDoes that make sense to you guys? :-)\r\n"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/solid/solid/issues/comments/247392087","html_url":"https://github.com/solid/solid/issues/112#issuecomment-247392087","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/solid/solid/issues/112","id":247392087,"user":{"login":"serapath","id":1771897,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/1771897?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/serapath","html_url":"https://github.com/serapath","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/serapath/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/serapath/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/serapath/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/serapath/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/serapath/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/serapath/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/serapath/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/serapath/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/serapath/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2016-09-15T17:16:25Z","updated_at":"2016-09-15T17:16:25Z","body":"Thank you for the link to w3.org. I'm looking for some open source solution. A cross-browser extension that a website i visit can communicate with.\r\nThe extension should either manage my private key to sign and proof me is me or should forward that to a  desktop program that manages my private key and that i can use to proof me is me :-)\r\n\r\ni'm not sure how webid works. Lots of text and code around but from a practical perspective i wonder if you people here or somewhere else might implement an open source user friendly solution so that i can start using webid today to allow users who use it to signin to my app :-)"}}
