Identity, Authentication, and Authorization (x-post from /r/csharp)

I’m fairly new to C#, but not new to programming. I’m trying to wrap my head around Identity, Authentication, and Authorization as I try to set up a custom auth provider in an ASP.NET Core project I’m working on (for work). Can anyone point me to a decent guide to walk me through it?The Security and Identity overview on Microsoft’s site is getting a bit overwhelming, especially when I start tackling all the sub-projects in https://ift.tt/2uuTZV1. As someone else pointed out on the C# Discord server, that’s the actual source for ASP.NET but it’s also where Microsoft’s docs point you while basically saying “look for ways to implement here” for example.I could really use a gentler, but comprehensive, guide. via /r/learncsharp https://ift.tt/30QiokH
