The line I changed I felt so confusing about that and after couple of hours I understand what it exactly said. I thought it might be helpful to describe that way.

Thanks

No, your client is public if there is no client secret in the storage. Providing a secret in the request will cause the authentication to fail, but it has no bearing on whether the client is public.

Maybe we can add another line that says "to authenticate a public client, omit the secret in your authentication request"

I understand. to authenticate a public client - this part is already specified I guess. to create a public client on storage - This is the part what I felt confusing. If there any thing need to be add that would be "How to create a public client on storage"
