# User handling and permissions

This module explores user management within Appfarm Create and how to configure roles and permissions to ensure a solution is secure. We also look at how to implement user manipulation within an app so that client users can add, update, and delete users. Finally, we look at implementing unauthenticated access to open up an app to the general public.

You should have completed the Intro Course, as well as the App Data and Actions & Logic modules, before starting this module.
