Hey @kbolino thank you for the valuable feedback! I recently rewrote the complete hydra documentation as we felt (and heard) that it was not explaining concepts well enough. As part of this implementation of consent, login, and logout flows have moved to here: https://www.ory.sh/docs/hydra/guides/logout Since the default user interface we provide implements these flows itself, we move this documentation to a separate section as it now is less common for users to build their own UI when using ory and we generally want to provide a really good default experience that does not need lots of coding and work. Hope this helped! |

There used to be very good language-agnostic documentation of how the login, consent, and logout flows worked; see these Wayback Machine links:
However, all of the equivalent links today are just redirects to other pages:
If you compare the old pages to the new ones, you can see they are very different. And, unfortunately, the new pages are not as useful. For one thing, the new Logout documentation doesn't describe how Hydra works, it describes how OIDC works, which is useful background information but not helpful to implementing the endpoint. And while the new Login and Consent documentation is at least Hydra-specific it is not language-agnostic and is significantly less detailed. Moreover, the reference implementation does not document its underlying assumptions very well and also uses a language-specific library which does not illustrate how the REST calls work nor how other languages might implement these calls.
Given the existence of the redirects, I assume the elimination of these pages was intentional, but then where can I go to find the information that is now missing?
