In this video series, I'm going to build an authentication service in Actix.
There are a couple of new libraries that I want to try, and a few people already asked me to do authentication, so let's see how it goes.
The idea is to have a service that will allow the user to create an account, log in and have access to other secure resources. I'm going to do something simple using only JSON Web Tokens, but it will give you an idea of how to implement a more complex setup like combining it with Oauth 2.
In this first part, I will set up the app configuration, the logs, and add a simple health endpoint.
