I plan on tackling that in the next couple weeks. The documentation is not exactly great for how to accomplish it. I'm hoping to get through all of it and write up a tutorial or possibly do a pull request on the documentation, but I haven't looked that far forward yet.

Why what? Is the documentation not great?

  • It doesn't explain the process or what it expects in clear terms
  • It doesn't provide code examples
    Yes there is the swagger docs, but that is the bare minimum documentation.

If you want to encourage more use, you ask community members to help with documentation, collaboration, tutorials, code examples, etc to speed adoption.

If I can successfully get this all working, I plan to bring it to all my projects in the future.

If it keeps being a tangled web of devs pointing out the swagger docs and one word answers for complex issues and questions, then why the hell would I want to keep using it?

Just since I've joined this discord, this and similar questions have been answered by someone who seems to be burnt out, which is okay and common in the open source community. But if this software wants to thrive, let people help with documentation, assisting each other, and the community will take care of itself instead of someone being annoyed by people wanting to engage.

Authentication sucks in general. It's hard to do right, especially self hosted, and especially for those who don't do it 24x7 and need a good, quick, easy way to just make it work without having to pay someone else to handle it.

I know you can use Casdoor as a paid service, but that's all the more reason to make it easy.

The docs is really needed

Docs contribution via PR is really a good help!

I can definitely give a hand!

I was looking through the docs repo last night. It's very well laid out.

I have only 1 question before I get into it. Do you have any plans or intentions to switch licenses or close source Casdoor in the future?
