## Overview

This repository is a curated, vendor-neutral CIAM resource directory, not an executable identity platform. Readers use its README to explore learning material, compare and choose platforms, and find resources across CIAM capabilities and the wider practitioner ecosystem. The README documents two external knowledge hubs and lists the remaining topic areas in its table of contents; details for sections beyond the excerpt are therefore represented only at that documented level.

Main entry points: [`README.md`](https://github.com/guptadeepak/awesome-customer-iam/blob/main/README.md) (CIAM fundamentals)
