   Flower 1.9 introduces the first build-in version of client node authentication. In previous releases, users often wrote glue code to connect Flower to external authentication systems. With this release, the SuperLink can authenticate SuperNodes using a built-in authentication system. A new [how-to guide](https://flower.ai/docs/framework/how-to-authenticate-supernodes.html) and a new [code example](https://github.com/adap/flower/tree/main/examples/flower-authentication) help you to get started.
