I can start this - would be cool to have a logo and a nice website for alpha release, but definitively not a blocker

The OpenShift Quickstart just downloads and extracts a dist from somewhere, so can be upgraded to the WildFly dist by just changing the URL it downloads. I'll need to learn Docbook in any case if we're using that for docs, so yes I can write the instructions on getting it up and running on OpenShift.

I can also write some other sections if you want some help with docs.

Is the lib/*-adapter needed?

What's the purpose of the exploded server WAR?

If we do provide a slimmed-down dist, we should also provide the instructions to deploy easily to a full WildFly. I imagine at least devs will want to have both their apps and Keycloak on a single server.
