Important update
This organization is not maintained anymore besides critical security bugfixes (if feasible). This organization will be archived when .NET Core 3.1 end of support is reached (3rd Dec 2022). All new development is happening in the new Duende Software organization.
The new Duende IdentityServer comes with a commercial license but is free for dev/testing/personal projects and companies or individuals making less than 1M USD gross annnual revenue. Please get in touch with us if you have any question.
About IdentityServer4
IdentityServer is a free, open source OpenID Connect and OAuth 2.0 framework for ASP.NET Core. Founded and maintained by Dominick Baier and Brock Allen, IdentityServer4 incorporates all the protocol implementations and extensibility points needed to integrate token-based authentication, single-sign-on and API access control in your applications. IdentityServer4 is officially certified by the OpenID Foundation and thus spec-compliant and interoperable. It is part of the .NET Foundation, and operates under their code of conduct. It is licensed under Apache 2 (an OSI approved license).
