I had a discussion on a meet-up a month ago with a friend of mine, and he was telling me it is not really easy or clear how one could create a simple web application in .NET and C#. Hopefully this post is going to help that friend of mine! 😊
A colleague of mine had a requirement in which he was interested to put the configuration settings of an ASP.NET Core application inside a SQL Server table and read them at startup of the application with a mechanism similar to what we already have for JSON files; also he wanted to have the ability that these variable being overridden or override other settings if applicable. In this article, I am going to describe how that could be achievable and how to implement such feature.
JSON Web Token (JWT) is an Internet standard for creating data with optional signature and/or optional encryption whose payload holds JSON that asserts some number of claims.
