 # Customer intent: As an application developer, I want a quick introduction to the Microsoft identity platform so I can decide if this platform meets my application development requirements.

 # What is the Microsoft identity platform?
 
-The Microsoft identity platform helps you build applications your users and customers can sign in to using their Microsoft identities or social accounts, and provide authorized access to your own APIs or Microsoft APIs like Microsoft Graph.
+The Microsoft identity platform helps you build applications your users and customers can sign in to using their Microsoft identities or social accounts. It authorizes access to your own APIs or Microsoft APIs like Microsoft Graph.
 
 There are several components that make up the Microsoft identity platform:
 
 - **OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect standard-compliant authentication service** enabling developers to authenticate several identity types, including:
   - Work or school accounts, provisioned through Azure AD
-  - Personal Microsoft account, like Skype, Xbox, and Outlook.com
+  - Personal Microsoft accounts (Skype, Xbox, Outlook.com)
   - Social or local accounts, by using Azure AD B2C
-- **Open-source libraries**: Microsoft Authentication Libraries (MSAL) and support for other standards-compliant libraries
+- **Open-source libraries**: Microsoft Authentication Library (MSAL) and support for other standards-compliant libraries.
 - **Application management portal**: A registration and configuration experience in the Azure portal, along with the other Azure management capabilities.
 - **Application configuration API and PowerShell**: Programmatic configuration of your applications through the Microsoft Graph API and PowerShell so you can automate your DevOps tasks.
 - **Developer content**: Technical documentation including quickstarts, tutorials, how-to guides, and code samples.
 
-For developers, the Microsoft identity platform offers integration of modern innovations in the identity and security space like passwordless authentication, step-up authentication, and Conditional Access. You don't need to implement such functionality yourself: applications integrated with the Microsoft identity platform natively take advantage of such innovations.

-With the Microsoft identity platform, you can write code once and reach any user. You can build an app once and have it work across many platforms, or build an app that functions as a client as well as a resource application (API).
