Blazor JWT Authentication 🔐

This project demonstrates how to implement JWT (JSON Web Token) Authentication in a Blazor application. It serves as a guide for integrating secure authentication mechanisms in Blazor, using JWT to handle user authentication and authorization.

Features

🔒 JWT-based authentication for securing API endpoints.
👤 Login and user authentication with token generation.
🔐 Token storage and validation using local storage.
⚡ Secure API calls using the generated JWT for authorization.
🧩 Blazor WebAssembly as the front-end framework.

Tech Stack

Blazor WebAssembly for the client-side.
ASP.NET Core for the backend.
JWT (JSON Web Tokens) for authentication and authorization.
Entity Framework Core for database operations.

Installation
