# Charm Local Users

Charm Local Users is a subordinate charm for creating and managing local user accounts and groups
on principal units. It can be related to any application using the `juju-info` interface.

It can be used to set up an unprivileged user for a hardware inventory system or grant access to
staff members. It’s intended for scenarios where you need to manage a relatively small number of
users - 1-10 accounts rather than hundreds.

Privileged users and management of privileges are out of scope. Integration with external identity
providers, such as LDAP or AD, are also out of scope.

Check out the basic usage on the [Tutorial](https://charmhub.io/local-users/docs/tutorial) page.
