Summary
This bachelors thesis focuses on updating the MetaMan application used by
the CESNET organization. MetaMan is a Laravel-based web application for
managing SAML metadata within the Czech academic federation eduID.cz and
the internal federations of other organizations. The platform accepts XML de-
scriptors from Identity and Service Providers, validates them using MetaMans
internal validator, and forwards the verified records to the Shibboleth Meta-
data Aggregator, which creates a separate metadata feed for each federation.
The application employs technologies such as Laravel, Tailwind CSS, Livewire,
and the Shibboleth Metadata Aggregator.
