Authenticating REST APIs to your server. How do you do it?

Don't even consider operating system users. Should have absolutely nothing to do with the people on your website.
Users should have some sort of account on your site before they get a token. If they didn't then how would you know which token corresponds to which user?
If you have a framework and it provides authentication then you should use that. If not then you can't really do that, can you?

Do you want simple or do you want secure?
