Website Hosting with Keycloak

I am looking to host a simple website with forms and information. I
have the pages made on my PC and am going to move them over to my
Ubuntu server at some point. I also have an instance of Keycloak
running and setup. I would like to put these pages behind a login,
hopefully using Keycloak OIDC.
My question is, what are you using to serve webpages with
authentication? I have used IIS (way back in the day) and currently a
package called CloudPanel (similar to cPanel), only haven't done
authentication with it. Before I got to far into setup, I was curious
if anyone had any solutions they liked better than others and why?
Just looking to see if I should keep going down my path or if there
are better options out there. Thank you!

Reverse proxy server like Caddy, Traefik, nginx etc combined with
Keycloak. Then each site gets served with whatever typical webserver
you want/need, nginx, Apache2 etc.

Look at the Keycloak documentation, and the documentation of the
reverse proxy you want to use.

CloudPanel is based on Nginx. Going into setup, I had been looking for
"CloudPanel" (mental block) integration when I should have been
thinking about the backend, which is nginx. Thanks for the suggestion!
