I'd add a mermaid diagram of the login flow from the SP to the IdP and back.
Mention that you can configure all of this via the APIs and SDKs, but for this tutorial you are going to walk people through manual configuration.
Whenever you are referencing a navigation element, use Breadcrumb. When it is a field, use InlineField. When it is another UI element like a button, use InlineUIElement. When it is a value, use the code backticks. (From https://github.com/FusionAuth/fusionauth-site/blob/main/DocsDevREADME.md#docs )
| **IdP** - Identity Provider - A service that verifies your user's identity. In this case, FusionAuth. This will be where the user logs in. | ||

| <Aside type="note"> | ||
| [FusionAuth supports SAML](/docs/lifecycle/authenticate-users/identity-providers/overview-samlv2) both as a SAML Identity Provider (IdP) and as a Service Provider (SP). Using FusionAuth for both could make this more difficult to follow, so for the purposes of this blog we will only be using FusionAuth as the IdP. |

Do you want to address the fact that when you configure a SAMLv2 Identity Provider in FusionAuth, you are actually having FusionAuth be the SP? Or do you think that is confusing?

| ### Add the user to the IAMShowcase Example application. | ||
|
|

| Select <InlineUIElement>Users</InlineUIElement>. Find the user you wish to test with. Select <InlineUIElement>Manage</InlineUIElement>. <InlineUIElement>Add registration</InlineUIElement> for the IAMShowcase Example application for the user. This user should have access to FusionAuth admin as well. |
