Improve authentication documentation #1086

Closed Mr0grog closed 1 year ago

Mr0grog commented 1 year ago

Now that we have public view permission, this updates the documentation to reflect it by describing how and when to authenticate.

It also duplicates the two main authentication routes under the API namespace at /api/v0/users/sign_in and /api/v0/users/session — the fact that they were at the root has always been confusing and this also allows the interactive features in the docs page to work.
