how to implement ASP.NET Identity to an empty MVC project
I create a new empty MVC
project and I want to add identity to it.
Now I do not know how to do this and how to create database and tables and classes.
I searched but I did not find any useful solution for my question, I found an article for adding ASP.NET Identity to an existing empty ASP.NET Web from but for ASP.Net MVC
project I did not find.
for log in
for registration form
for adding a user to role
for deleting user
how to create tables in my own database
how to manage users

Solution 2:
Open up the nuget package manager by going to:
Tools > Nuget Package Manager > Package Manager Console
in a new project[1]. From there, You can enter next to the PM>
Install-Package Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.Samples -Pre
which will install the Identity sample for you. It will ask you if you allow it to alter your webconfig
by pressing 'A' you accept all changes.
From then onwards, you'll have the sample identity project installed!
Note: It will change the default namespace, so by going to 'find and replace' you can quickly alter the occurrences to your project name (note, you may have to go into your global.aspx
page in your my documents folder - open it in notepad and change the namespace there too!)
[1]: If you do not do this at the beginning of your development, you will find that the following files will be overwritten(so make sure you have a way to merge your originals with the new):
Overwrite existing file 'Views\Web.config'.
Overwrite existing file 'Views\Shared\Error.cshtml'.
Overwrite existing file 'Views\Shared\_Layout.cshtml'.
Overwrite existing file 'Views\Home\Index.cshtml'.
Overwrite existing file 'Views\_ViewStart.cshtml'.
Overwrite existing file 'Global.asax.cs'.
Overwrite existing file 'Global.asax'.
Overwrite existing file 'Controllers\HomeController.cs'.
Overwrite existing file 'Content\Site.css'.
Overwrite existing file 'App_Start\RouteConfig.cs'.
Overwrite existing file 'App_Start\FilterConfig.cs'.
Overwrite existing file 'App_Start\BundleConfig.cs'.
