The quickstarts provide step by step instructions for various common Open.IdentityServer scenarios. They start with the absolute basics and become more complex - it is recommended you do them in order.

  • adding Open.IdentityServer to an ASP.NET Core application

  • configuring Open.IdentityServer

  • issuing tokens for various clients

  • securing web applications and APIs

  • adding support for EntityFramework based configuration

  • adding support for ASP.NET Identity

Every quickstart has a reference solution - you can find the code in the samples folder.

Preparation

The first thing you should do is clone the repository and pick the quickstart you want to work with. Each quickstart has a corresponding sample solution in the samples folder.

Note

If you are using private NuGet sources do not forget to add the –nuget-source parameter: –nuget-source https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json

OK - let’s get started!

Note

The quickstarts target the Open.IdentityServer 1.x and .NET 10.0 and use ASP.NET MVC.
