Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Easiest to set up IAM solution? (OIDC, OAuth2, SSO, etc.)English
0·6 months agoOidc is easier to implement than SAML. Oauth2 is for authorization (vs authentication). Its used along with Oidc, but Oidc is the authentication piece (the SSO part)
I say Oidc is easier to implement because it is json based (jwt token) vs SAML which uses XML, which is very verbose and has stuff like namespaces and xsd’s which can make XML a pain to work with.
I’d suggest you stick to keycloak and set up Oidc. This is a good tutorial https://medium.com/@buffetbenjamin/keycloak-essentials-openid-connect-c7fa87d3129d
Edit: take a look at authentik too. I’ve always used keycloak but authentik looks interesting

I just hate the feeling of chatting with something that is designed to sound human when I got into software devrlopment because I got tired of dealing with people in the first place.
From my perspective natural language isn’t expressive enough to describe a computer program and that’s why programming languages were created. That’s one of the reasons you gotta keep prompting over and over again.
Couple that with the gambling type feeling I get when I use them (keep rolling the dice until something is spit out that “works”), just feels gross to me.
It’s really depressing to me because I really enjoy programming and I know there are tons out there like me who have had the same passion with it.
