The Keycloak Server comes with a Javascript library you can use to secure HTML/Javascript applications. This
library is referencable directly from the keycloak server. You can also download the adapter from Keycloak's download
site if you want a static copy of this library. It
works in the same way as other application adapters except that your browser is driving the OAuth redirect protocol
rather than the server.

libraries:
