[keycloak-user] Keycloak as OpenID Connect Identity Provider?

Can Keycloak act as an OpenID Connect Identity Provider?

I'm only just getting an understanding of some of the various protocols and
standards in this world, but I'm working from a set of developers' specs
for a software project and one thing that they list is to use OpenID
Connect.

I can see from Chapter 9 of the Documentation how to configure the Identity
Broker for various types of Identity Providers. But I can't find anything
that suggests that Keycloak can act as the Identity Provider for OpenID
Connect. I fear I might be missing something obvious.

The information on the OpenID.net site (
http://openid.net/developers/libraries/ ) lists Keycloak, but it does not
have details on whether it can only act as a Relying Party, or if it can
also act as an Identity Provider.

Any thoughts or pointers to something I'm missing in the docs would be
appreciated.

Thanks.
