Provides high-performance and low-allocating types that serialize objects to JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) text and deserialize JSON text to objects, with UTF-8 support built-in. Also provides types to read and write JSON text encoded as UTF-8, and to create an in-memory document object model (DOM), that is read-only, for random access of the JSON elements within a structured view of the data.
Commonly Used Types:
System.Text.Json.JsonSerializer
System.Text.Json.JsonDocument
System.Text.Json.JsonElement
System.Text.Json.Utf8JsonWriter
System.Text.Json.Utf8JsonReader
When using NuGet 3.x this package requires at least version 3.4.

|---|---|
|
Microsoft.IdentityModel.Tokens
Includes types that provide support for SecurityTokens, Cryptographic operations: Signing, Verifying Signatures, Encryption. |
|
|
Azure.Core
This is the implementation of the Azure Client Pipeline |
|
|
Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyModel
Provides abstractions for reading `.deps` files. When a .NET application is compiled, the SDK generates a JSON manifest file (`<ApplicationName>.deps.json`) that contains information about application dependencies. You can use `Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyModel` to read information from this manifest at run time. This is useful when you want to dynamically compile code (for example, using Roslyn Emit API) referencing the same dependencies as your main application. By default, the dependency manifest contains information about the application's target framework and runtime dependencies. Set the PreserveCompilationContext project property to `true` to additionally include information about reference assemblies used during compilation. |
|
|
Microsoft.Extensions.Configuration.Json
JSON configuration provider implementation for Microsoft.Extensions.Configuration. This package enables you to read your application's settings from a JSON file. You can use JsonConfigurationExtensions.AddJsonFile extension method on IConfigurationBuilder to add the JSON configuration provider to the configuration builder. |

Microsoft.IdentityModel.Protocols.OpenIdConnect
Includes types that provide support for OpenIdConnect protocol. |
