Blazor.WebAuthentication

A Blazor wrapper for the Web Authentication browser API.

The API specifies ways to create and validate strong public-key-based credentials. It gets these credentials from the native authenticators of the device. On Windows, that's Windows Hello; on iOS/macOS, that's Touch ID or Face ID; and on Android, that's face, fingerprint, or PIN authentication. This project implements a wrapper around the API for Blazor so that we can easily and safely work with native authentication methods from the browser.

This wrapper is still under development.

Demo

The sample project can be demoed at https://kristofferstrube.github.io/Blazor.WebAuthentication/

On each page, you can find the corresponding code for the example in the top right corner.

Logging and monitoring

For the demo, I use elmah.io for logging and monitoring. This helps me to debug errors that might occur on specific devices or under special circumstances. The use of Error Handling JSInterop from Blazor.WebIDL combined with elmah.io makes this especially useful.

elmah.io gives a free Small Business subscription to any OSS project. Read more about this here: Open Source - Monitor your open source website for free
