Start in ServerHttpSecurity and inspect how ServerFormLoginAuthenticationConverter and ServerHttpBasicAuthenticationConverter are configured as defaults. Trace the existing form-login and HTTP Basic fluent APIs; done means a caller can provide a custom authentication converter through the Java configuration API while retaining the defaults.
