As far as I am aware, the AccountController code has been moved to Razor pages (and their code behinds) and works best using defaults so to customise the code you can Scaffold (ie create the files in the right place) from a brand new Net Core 2.1 project by right-clicking the Project in Visual Studio 2017 and seleting Add => New Scaffolded Item => Identity which opens a Select Dialog. Choose desired pages and there you go. Just change the pages you want and copy to same place in an Identity enabled project as these new pages automatically override the defaults. This is the new way to customize authentication/authorization using Identity not sure whether many consider this significant progress!
