Implementing OpenIddict in Blazor Hybrid

Hello there

I'm developping an app and I am looking for some advices!

The solution is currently architectured like this:

ASP.NET Core app
Blazor webapp (from the NET9 template with WASM and SSR prerendering)
Shared Razor Class Library
MAUI

What I would like to achieve:

Be free and open-source
Provide a secured local authentication
Provide a device code flow authentication
Allowing users to potentially authenticate from an external OIDC provider (Authentik, GitHub, etc)
When authenticating from an external OIDC provider, create a local user and be authenticated as local
Allowing a user to merge a local user and a user created from an external OIDC provider
(later) Have some kind of federation (allow users from one instance1 to access resources from instance2 without having to authenticate as well to instance2)

Questions I have:

Is OpenIddict the go-to for what I want to achieve ?
Is a BFF (would be my SSR project I suppose) required in my case for WASM and MAUI ?
Where should the login page be located (Blazor WASM, Blazor SSR, ASP.NET) ?
Is pre-rendering too hard/not worth to implement (should I skip it and go WASM standalone) ?

Thanks a lot!!
