It’s been awhile since I’ve let the intrusive thoughts win but my current passion project could benefit from the concept of identities (and who doesn’t love mocking identities for tests), but before that I’m eying off Kanidm because it’s all in one and containerised.

Though I’m wondering if anyone has worked it into Aspire, or if I’ll be another person doing it and not documenting the process for anyone. Not expecting a library to exist to orchestrate it in an aspire-like way, just to have it start the container and have everything it hopefully needs.

If you don’t know what Kanidm is, it’s a single stop identity provider that can cover a lot of use cases. I just don’t want to rely on a third party because ?????? why would I want a remote dependency for local development, I’m not doing my day to day work after all
