or with the nuget package manager console:

Install-Package StanfordPasswordPolicy

Usage

services.AddIdentity<AppUser, IdentityRole>(opt =>
        {
            // If you don't want Identity's defaults to interfere with your new policy
            opt.Password = StanfordPasswordValidatorBase.NoDefaultPasswordOptions;
        })
        .AddPasswordValidator<StanfordPasswordValidator<AppUser>>();
