To download the release go to Keycloak downloads. Release notes Monorepo In the past Keycloak was maintained across multiple GitHub repositories: Documentation repository UI repository Node.js admin client repository Having multiple repositories introduced a lot of complexity and toil.

It also provides built-in support for enabling the policy enforcer to Jakarta applications protected with Wildfly Elytron. For now, this dependency is not yet GA as we are still working on the quickstarts and documentation. This work should not impact existing applications using the deprecated adapters. Javascript engine available by default In the previous version, when Keycloak was used on Java 17 with Javascript providers it was needed to add the Nashorn javascript engine to the distribution. This is no longer needed as Nashorn javascr
