Hi Henry,

What's wrong with WebID-OIDC + WebID-TLS bridge that currently exists?

The problem I see with all of this is the lack of simply usage examples.

Here something we've been playing with en route to making a simple guide
for building Single Page Applications that leverage the
solid-auth-client library:

Naturally, the document "view source" and copy and paste friendly i.e.,
you can see all sources via your browsers inspector and just copy to
your own data space etc.. All of this using what exists today :)
