- freeqaz 4y agoFor small projects, Keycloak is wayyyy too heavy for them. It requires multiple domains which makes sign outs hard... a OIDC server and client... it's a lot. It works well when you need to stitch together multiple services but otherwise it's not something I'd use for an MVP. (And even then you can wrap Auth with nested subdomains and a top level cookie w/ a proxy to pass headers to each service. Easier and less complexity because state lives in one place.)
- whiskey14 4y agoThe only use case I've come across Keycloak is for China auth where we can't use firebase
- rusticpenn 4y agoI usually use the default docker image. Use an older config file or use the Keycloak web interface for configuration. There are Keycloak libraries for laravel, react,vanilla js etc., so I felt the whole architecture was pretty simple and 30 mins of work to get it all set up.
