Securing Remix Apps with Keycloak
In this article we'll be using Keycloak to quickly augment an application with user management and SSO. We will demonstrate the integration by securing a page for logged-in users. This quickly provides a jump-off point to more complex integrations.

Simplifying Keycloak Configuration with Terraform and Terragrunt
Keycloak, an open-source identity and access management solution, provides robust authentication and authorization services for modern applications. However, configuring Keycloak instances manually can be tedious and error-prone. In this blog post, we'll explore how to simplify Keycloak configuration using Terraform and Terragrunt, enabling infrastructure as code (IaC) practices for managing Keycloak realms, clients, users, and more.

Securing Vue Apps with Keycloak
In this article we'll be using Keycloak to secure a Vue.js Web application. We're going to leverage oidc-client-ts to integrate OIDC authentication with the Vue app. The oidc-client-ts package is a well-maintained and used library. It provides a lot of utilities for building out a fully production app.

It sounds like what you're looking for is an identity provider.
A popular open source option is https://www.keycloak.org/
This application can manage your users, then you can use standards like OpenID or SAML to plug it into your application, of which there are usually many plugins to accomplish this depending on your tech stack.

Top 6 Open Source Identity and Access Management (IAM) Solutions For Enterprises
KeyCloak is a Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) project that offers enterprise IAM solutions. Keycloak emphasizes proficient enterprise authorization solutions by providing:

Outline: Self hostable, realtime, Markdown compatible knowledge base
Outline only uses SSO for authentication. The solution when self hosting is use a private keycloak server [1]. This allows you to do email based auth.

Keycloak open redirect: wildcard redirect URIs can be exploited to steal tokens
> Keycloak was good but has too much legacy for 10+ years.
I got curious, actually seems to check out and explains why it's so well documented (but also complex and oftentimes confusing):
> The first production release of Keycloak was in September 2014, with development having started about a year earlier.

What Is OIDC?
> Don't outsource either your authentication or authorization. Run it in-house.
This is hard to do, though. I hope people here will drop a lot of combinations that work for them!
Personally, for a small/medium scale project, I went with:
Keycloak: https://www.keycloak.org/
It supports various backing RDBMSes (like PostgreSQL, MariaDB/MySQL and others), allows both users that you persist in your own DB, as well as various external sources, like social login across various platforms, is an absolute pain to configure and sometimes acts in stupid ways behind a reverse proxy, but has most of the features that you might ever want, which sadly comes coupled with some complexity and an enterprise feeling.
I quite like that it offers the login/registration views that you need with redirects, as well as user management, storing roles/permissions and other custom attributes. It's on par with what you'd expect and should serve you nicely.
mod_auth_openidc: https://github.com/OpenIDC/mod_auth_openidc
This one's a certified OpenID Connect Relying Party implementation for... Apache2/httpd.
Some might worry about the performance and there are other options out there (like a module for OpenResty, which is built on top of Nginx), but when coupled with mod_md Apache makes for a great reverse proxy/ingress for my personal needs.
The benefit here is that I don't need 10 different implementations for each service/back end language that's used, I can outsource the heavy lifting to mod_auth_openidc (protected paths, needed roles/permissions, redirect URLs, token renewal and other things) and just read a few trusted headers behind the reverse proxy if further checks are needed, which is easy in all technologies.
That said, the configuration there is also hard and annoying to do, as is working with OpenID Connect in general, even though you can kind of understand why that complexity is inherent. Here's a link with some certified implementations, by the way: https://openid.net/developers/certified-openid-connect-imple...

LDAP resources/recommendations question
I also want to try FreeIPA but as it's built on top of 389ds I'm afraid that it's gonna be as big of a memory hog (will try it later anyways) and has many things I don't and won't need, which I'm afraid would add complexity to setup.

Raspberry Pi 4 2GB on Fedora
I had Fedora 34 installed to an SD card for a FreeIPA node which worked well. It was most likely an earlier release (32 or 33) running on a Pi 3B which would occasionally run out of memory, so the whole thing got transplanted to a Pi 4 with 4GB. I'm pretty sure I used the disk image to install since I like to start from a minimal image and only install what I need.
