[keycloak-user] Keycloak and 3rd party add-ons infrastructure (aka Marketplace)

I'd like to start with something simple first. A single page on the website
where we can list external plugins. It's not going to be a marketplace and
I'm fairly sure we don't want to link to commercial and certainly not
closed source.

A lot of the things you mention are things we'd like to add though.

Hi,

The more popular Keycloak grows, the more 3rd party add-ons will
emerge. There are a lot of demanded features that probably will never
land in upstream Keycloak because of the relatively small core team and
lack of resources to support them. Off the top of my head, I can name
U2F, SCIM, OpenID 2.0, non-US social networks, HRM integration, support
for hardware OTP generators, advanced monitoring etc. But even if some
of the above gets implemented by a 3rd party, there are no ways to
learn about it other than googling or browsing mail list archives. This
can affect overall Keycloak popularity in a negative way, since a
potential user could reject Keycloak just because it doesn't have
feature X, while the feature is actually implemented and supported by a
3rd party.

As a 3rd party developer myself, I'd ideally see something like
Atlassian Marketplace [2], which is an add-on catalog with searching
and categorization, and also a mechanism for simple 1-click
install/update/remove from within the application GUI.

I remember a related discussion from June [1] that unfortunately ended
up nowhere; just wanted to know what's the current stance on this
problem?

Cheers,
Dmitry
