Re:Show HN: Hydra – Open-Source OAuth2 Server by hans0l074 on Tuesday July 02, 2019 @01:34AM (#20332405)
Thanks for this list! I wonder why Identity Servier is tied into .NET - an OAuth 2.0 / OIDC provider just provides OAuth services. Couldn't this be used by any service provider or client?

It's a C#/.NET app but it's not tied to it. OAuth/OIDC is all HTTP endpoints and redirects.

IdentityServer does have more of a framework/library approach so you can integrate it into your own code and apps but there's a turnkey UI project available that just needs some settings in a JSON config file to get running.

They also have the only good OIDC javascript client that implements the new PKCE flow for client-side apps: https://github.com/IdentityModel/oidc-client-js
