 * Hi Justin,
 * Thanks for the quick feedback! Yes, it sounds like you knew just what I meant!
   I’ve never dug into auth before so please pardon my noob status.
 * I haven’t dug into the docs yet as I wanted to do an initial sanity check, but
   it sounds like I have an option here.
 * I’m not sure what you mean by “grant type auth code (browser based), could you
   point me to a doc that covers this by any chance?
 * My alternative would be to have WP be the auth system, and have my node/react
   app authenticate against it instead. Do you think this approach would be any 
   easier?
 * Thanks again!
