Start a working Keycloak server on your machine with Docker, Podman, or the zip distribution — plus the dev-mode trap that bites people later.
Your First Keycloak Realm, Client, and User
Create a Keycloak realm, register a client, and add a user — in the admin console and with kcadm.sh — plus what each of the three actually means.
Get a Keycloak Token and Read Every Claim
Get a token from Keycloak with one curl command, decode it, and learn what every claim in it means — plus the aud trap that makes valid tokens get rejected.
