## What it is
A tutorial repository demonstrating authentication in AngularJS applications using ASP.NET Web API 2 and Owin middleware with access tokens and refresh tokens. It serves as accompanying sample code for a blog tutorial series on token-based authentication.

## Use cases
- learn how to implement token-based authentication with AngularJS and ASP.NET Web API
- understand access token and refresh token flows with Owin middleware
- find example code for securing a Web API 2 backend with JWT-style tokens
- follow a step-by-step tutorial on AngularJS login and refresh token handling

## When to choose
- you are maintaining or learning a legacy AngularJS + ASP.NET Web API 2 stack
- you want a guided tutorial explaining Owin middleware token authentication concepts

## When to avoid
- you are starting a new project with modern Angular, React, or ASP.NET Core
- you need actively maintained, production-ready authentication code
- you require a licensed library rather than tutorial sample code

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: abandoned
- function: auth, api-framework, middleware
- domain: web-development, security, developer-tools, tutorials
