In case you using .NET Core app:

You can easily use the @inject feature call for injecting both UserManager and SignInManager.

In your view add the following:

@inject SignInManager SignInManager
@inject UserManager UserManager

After the injection, you should be able to work with UserManager and SignInManager methods. For instance:

@if (SignInManager.IsSignedIn(User))
{
    Hello @UserManager.GetUserName(User)
}
else
{
}

Pay attention for passing the User object when you need to reference the current logged in user.
