Getting Started

Clone the Repository

git clone https://github.com/CoderFoundry/AuthDemoYT.git

Run the Application

1. Open the solution in Visual Studio or your preferred IDE.
2. Build and run the project.
3. The application will automatically:
   • Create a SQLite database named AuthDemoApp.db.
   • Run migrations to configure ASP.NET Identity.
   • Set up two default users for immediate testing.

Configuration

Modify the settings in appsettings.json if needed:

"ConnectionStrings": {
  "DbConnection": "Data Source=AuthDemoApp.db"
},
"DefaultPassword": "Password123@"

• DbConnection: Set a custom database file or connection string.
• DefaultPassword: Change the default password for the created users.

Important: The DbConnection setting is required unless you're modifying the database connection handling logic in the code.

Prerequisites

• .NET SDK
• Visual Studio or Visual Studio Code
