While authelia is quite cool "infra-as-code" tool, since you have your entire configuration in yaml form, for those not willing to spend a few evenings configuring SSO, there is authentik [1] which features management UI.

Offers similar feature set, also self-hostable, but most importantly - simple to set-up. I've spent 8h on authelia deployment, where 30 minutes in authentik would be sufficient. But both are good options, pick what you prefer.

A second for authentik. Much easier to setup though still tricky when certain programs require things like webhooks, etc.

what do you mean?

do you mean authentik is much easier to setup?

> "a second" ?

In more "formal" discussion environments than an Internet discussion thread, sometimes a "proposal" or statement made by someone will be met by someone else giving their support of said statement by stating "I second that", meaning they're the second person in the room to support the statement verbally aloud.

TLDR; They're throwing their support of the OP's statement into the ring.

I do believe from the context of the rest of their comment that's exactly what they mean to say.
