A backend auth foundation built as an internship exercise in secure account workflows.
The API is built with ASP.NET Core on .NET 9 and uses Identity, Entity Framework Core, SQL Server, and JWT authentication. Beyond basic login and registration, it also includes account lockout handling, email confirmation, password reset, and 2FA-related endpoints, which made it a good practical introduction to implementing real authentication flows instead of just wiring a simple login form to a database.
