Create KeyCloak Users
!!! warning This is not a complete recipe - it's an optional component of the [Keycloak recipe]https://geek-cookbook.funkypenguin.co.nz/recipes/keycloak/), but has been split into its own page to reduce complexity.
Unless you plan to authenticate against an outside provider ([OpenLDAP]https://geek-cookbook.funkypenguin.co.nz/recipes/keycloak/openldap/), below, for example), you'll want to create some local users..

Summary
We've setup users in KeyCloak, which we can now use to authenticate to KeyCloak, when it's used as an [OIDC Provider]https://geek-cookbook.funkypenguin.co.nz/recipes/keycloak/setup-oidc-provider/), potentially to secure vulnerable services using [Traefik Forward Auth]https://geek-cookbook.funkypenguin.co.nz/ha-docker-swarm/traefik-forward-auth/).
!!! Summary Created:
* [X] Username / password to authenticate against [KeyCloak]https://geek-cookbook.funkypenguin.co.nz/recipes/keycloak/)
