You’re a traveler standing before the towering gates of a grand castle. 🏰
The gatekeeper stops you. “Who are you?” they ask.
This is authentication - proving your identity.
But it’s not over yet.
You’re told that where you can go depends on your rank.
Some can enter the royal chambers, while others stay in the courtyard.
This is authorization - deciding what you’re allowed to do based on who you are.
Now, think about this in the digital world.
When users log into your app, how do you ensure they’re who they say they are?
And how do you control what parts of your app they can access? 🤔
That’s where JSON Web Tokens (JWTs) come in.
In my tutorial below, I guide you through creating a secure .NET 9 API step by step. Here’s what you’ll learn: ✔️ Setting up user registration and login ✔️ Securing your API with roles (e.g., admin, user) ✔️ Implementing refresh tokens for extra security
💡 Plus, I’ll show you how to hash passwords, use Entity Framework, and configure authentication schemes - all while keeping it practical and beginner-friendly.
