The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
[Pi-hole for Windows](https://github.com/DesktopECHO/Pi-Hole-for-WSL1) is an installer script that wraps the [Pi-hole](https://pi-hole.net/) DNS ad-blocker around a small WSL1 image to deploy a new Pi-hole instance in a few minutes. Encrypted DoT is provided by [Unbound](https://www.nlnetlabs.nl/projects/unbound) and replication by [Gravity Sync](https://github.com/vmstan/gravity-sync). No hypervisor, container, or Linux(*) is used. Startup time is near-instant as you don't have to wait for a hypervisor to boot a VM, and in Task Manager you see Pi-hole and admin portal running alongside your Windows binaries.
