AspNetCore.Docs VS openiddict-core

Certain parts of Microsoft Learn are permissive, for example the .NET BCL documentation is Creative Commons Attribution: https://github.com/dotnet/dotnet-api-docs as is ASP.NET Core: https://github.com/dotnet/AspNetCore.Docs (a good hint if documentation is permissively licensed and on GitHub is if there's an edit button at the top.)

The C# language specification is unfortunately a bit fuzzier: https://github.com/dotnet/csharplang/discussions/4855

The updated unified C# language specification is CC, but it's still catching up to modern C#: https://github.com/dotnet/csharpstandard

looks like 8.0 release? https://github.com/dotnet/AspNetCore.Docs/commit/e8ce5761969...

I am not sure what you mean,but here you can find all the supported ways of accessing the httpcontext in.net core https://github.com/dotnet/AspNetCore.Docs/blob/main/aspnetcore/fundamentals/http-context.md maybe this can help you

Whilst EF6.3 had some support (note: designer doesn’t work) in .NET Core 3.1 (sample), I’m not sure if that applies to NET6. You could certainly give it a try.

11. ASP.NET

Openiddict is also an option. Check it out.https://github.com/openiddict/openiddict-core

To implement an OAuth server together with OpenID connect specification, I used a free and open source framework called Openiddict. You should checkout their GitHub repository at github.com/openiddict/openiddict-core. It is a nice and feature rich tool which help you get started very fast. However, comparing to alternatives like identity server, it needs more implementation rather functionalities coming out of the box.

You can use Openidict https://documentation.openiddict.com/, give it a try

Openiddict to create your own OpenID Connect server if you want to deep dive into auth https://github.com/openiddict/openiddict-core

If you do want a .NET IdP then you could look into OpenIddict but will require some hands on work, at a minimum authorisation controllers. If you're looking for something more out of the box OrchardCore's OpenId module might be better for you.

I personally prefer using Cookies with openiddict.

Also, the OAuth bit is very cool!! Do you plan to support OpenIddict it’s a free federated identity server.

Okta is a great example of an IdP, although there are many others. Auth0, Ping Federate, Amazon cognito, etc. OP also mentioned Identity Server, which is a framework for implementing your own IdP. I've also personally used an open-source library called [OpenIDDict[(https://documentation.openiddict.com/) to great success. I would highly recommend attempting to implement one of these providers as a learning exercise.
