The information on `/login` should probably be on / so I can read somewhere what "Stateless authentication microservice" actually means.
Also maybe a sentence why this is neat and should be used...

It tells me that is has something to do with login, "without state" (whatever this means in this context) and that it is somehow not a "big service" but very "micro", so probably independent. Stateless and microservice can mean so many things.
A microservice is a service that does only one thing, and does it simply.
Something stateless doesn't keep state - after an interaction with a client, nothing has changed in the service itself.
A stateless authentication microservice is something I would expect to run, listen on a port for some sort of authentication credentials, and return either some sort of authorizarion token or an authentication error.
I don't see where the confusion comes from.
Asking to do a pull request or create an issue is just a polite way of saying fuck off.
Perhaps you could describe what details you would like to see in the issue? :)

In seriousness, noobish me would like to understand more what this is and when I should use it.
