How to use ACA-Py to issue and verify JSON-LD credentials

JSON-LD W3C Verifiable Credentials are a popular credential format in the Decentralized Identity community. They complement the Anonymous Credentials (AnonCreds) credential format; both formats are supported by Aries Cloud Agent - Python (ACA-Py) and can be combined to fulfill a variety of use cases.

Together, we can take advantage of the strengths of both to cover some of their use-case-specific weaknesses. We will also discuss the capabilities of JSON-LD and will demonstrate issuing and presenting JSON-LD Credentials using ACA-Py.
