Asp.Net supports both internal & external auth(n|z) providers.
I have to admit that I haven't done much with the interweb side. Truth be told, the few times I've used Asp.Net, I used KeyCloak as the authentication provider, and that's Java-based, lol.
It may not suit your needs, but maybe that high-level doc can help you drill down quickly and not waste too much time on it.
I will say that I do always find it amazing how large sites can be sucessfully operated without too much fuss on the platform. Stack Overflow was notorious for being a very high traffic site that ran on a small cluster of machines and was all done in Asp.Net (might have been the old Windows framework, however).
I would like to add that I've been working with Entity Framework (EFCore) for the past year, and I've found it to provide velocity on that front. Never was a big ORM fan, but I can definitely see the use cases now.

That being said (and damn you for making me link to ms docs yet another time today), there is a built in provider, but my recollection is it did not support OAuth2 or JWT: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/security/?view...
