Sample ASP.NET Core MVC and Angular apps and API using Identity Server 4

IdentityServerSample

Sample ASP.NET Core MVC app, Angular and API using Identity Server 4 and Entity Framework to store Identity tables (Users, Roles, UserRoles, UserClaims, UserLogins, etc) and Identity Server tables (Clients, ClientSecrets, PersistedGrants, IdentityResources, ApiResources, etc)

Quick start

Edit soution properties to set multiple startup projects (select API, WebApp, AngularApp and IdentityServer as start projects).
Then just run F5, this will start the Identity Server on https://localhost:44367/, API on https://localhost:44374/, Angular App on https://localhost:44398/ and Web App on https://localhost:44340/.
First run will initialize the database IdentityServerSample with all the tables and some sample data and Identity Server configuration data.
Go to Web App -> SignIn, this will redirect to Identity Server. Register if it's first time, accept consent and once logged in can access API resources.
