@colgreen, Thank you for your time and effort. Based on your feedback, we have taken up a complete update ourselves and it'd be available soon.

@Shama-K Thanks for looking at this. Yes, I probably went a bit too far updating and removing things :) Hopefully it serves as an example update to work from though.

@colgreen, it's great, we really appreciate it. Latest changes are available in the master branch. Could you please take some time to try the sample and share how it works for you?

Hi @Shama-K, yes this looks much better and up-to-date now. I see there is lots of info in the readme.md now too.

I tried the app on clean environment and it compiled and ran first time - I used an existing AzureAD account/tenant, so didn't try the new scripts to set that up.

I only have a couple of minor items to report:

1) In README.md, the link to CONTRIBUTING.MD near the bottom is a dead link. 2) The csproj contains a reference to a favicon.ico file, but that file is missing from the git repo, and therefore it appears with a yellow warning triangle in visual studio.

I think I can revoke/close my pull request now.

Thanks again.

@colgreen, I have noted the points and I'll create a pull request for that. Please go ahead and close this PR.

Thank you.
