Hum, that looks terribly confusing, IMO (OpenIddict doesn't really "feature" a server stack with AdminUI, which is actually completely separate from the OpenIddict base project).

2 alternative options that could be less confusing:

  • Add a new Going further section at the end of the file where you'd mention the 3rd-party template you created to set up an OpenIddict server + a management UI simultaneously.
  • Add a [!TIP] block with similar content.

The server stack is compatible with ASP.NET Core 8+. To get started, read
[Creating your own server instance with AdminUI](https://www.openiddictcomponents.com/articles/quick-start-openiddict-sso-solution-with-management-ui).

- A **validation stack**, that allows implementing token authentication support for your ASP.NET 4.6.2+ and ASP.NET Core 2.3+ APIs.
To get started, read [Implementing token validation in your APIs](implementing-token-validation-in-your-apis.md).
