Too Long; Didn't Read
SimpleID is an identity as a service provider. It grew out of the need for decentralized applications to have a better authentication experience. We use SimpleID for our own internal app, so when you sign up, you're actually creating a decentralized identity with cryptographic keypairs. For this tutorial, we are going to use the Blockstack modules from SimpleID to add authentication and storage to our app. The project itself starts as a bare-bones todo app with basic state management. There's no authentication and no data persistence, so we're going to fix that in literally just a few minutes.
