Summary

Netlify is introducing two new additions to its platform: the Identity service, which allows developers to manage and authenticate users without building their own solution, and Git Gateway, a feature that connects content contributors or managers without GitHub accounts to Netlify CMS projects. These features aim to streamline and unify communication between microservices in a project by providing a plug-and-play authentication API and a way to add contributors to site management even if they don't have GitHub accounts. The Identity service can be combined with Role Based Access controls to build large, content-driven sites with private or logged-in areas that don't require any custom backend. With Git Gateway, developers can give their contributors the ability to work in the same Git-centric workflow as the rest of the team, even if they don't have a GitHub account.
