For high-level libraries see the Aiakos_ project.
What is OpenID Connect?
It's a OAuth2-based standard for authentication in applications.
Legacy authorization servers

- github
For gitlab and github - both official and on-premise instances are supported.
Requirements
- Python 3.7+ - might work on older 3.x versions, but it's not tested
