In this episode, we take a look at our frontend single page application, and the changes made to handle user authentication. We also take a look at a way to handle the CSRF token in the requests made to the BFF.

In this episode, we look at the backend for frontend, and the changes required for it to handle the users authentication, redirection to the identity provider (the IdentityServer4 powered auth service), the inclusion of an access token when making API calls, the refresh of said token and handling CSRF tokens.

In this episode, we look at the group management service, and the changes required for it to enforce the requests authentication using an access token (JWT).

In this episode, we start looking at the code needed to integrate IdentityServer4 in our application, namely with the authentication service we developed previously.

In this episode, we start with an overview of the current application’s architecture and how we’ll start integrating IdentityServer4 into it.

A quick tale of an idiot wasting hours by not checking the docs earlier.

In this episode, we’ll start building our backend for frontend, which will bridge the interaction between the Vue.js frontend application and the backend APIs we’ll develop. For now this will be mostly an excuse for playing with the HttpClient in ASP.NET Core, as we’ll improve the BFF in the future, with some proxying capabilities for requests that don’t need additional logic.

In this episode, we get back to the authorization topic, playing a bit with roles, claims and policies in ASP.NET Core, learning how we can use these to restrict access to certain areas of our application.

In this episode, we’ll use ASP.NET Core internationalization support to make our authentication service available in multiple languages.

In this episode, we continue exploring ASP.NET Core Identity and Razor Pages as we continue development of our authentication service.
