How to decode JSON web token in clojurescript?

I've seen libraries like buddy and even clj-jwt but these all are used for clojure. If I can use those libraries I can't figure out how to do it in my clojurescript application.

I'm able to include the files in the project.clj under the :dependencies with something like: 

[buddy/buddy-core "0.13.0"]
[clj-jwt "0.1.1"]

But then I can't call them in my cljs files. I suspect this is because they are clj files.

I was able to get the id token from the auth0 callback but now can't figure out how to read the token! Thanks for any help!

Use the Google Closure Crypt packages. (https://github.com/google/closure-library/tree/master/closure/goog/crypt)

Here is an example where I used Md5 specifically (nothing to do with auth0, just showing how to use the crypt stuff. https://github.com/timothypratley/snakelake/blob/master/src/snakelake/view.cljs
