 * How can I register a wordpress (specifically WooCommerce) user using this plugin.
   I understand how to login, but there seems to be no documentation on creating/
   registering a user though.

 * Hi [@apsixions](https://wordpress.org/support/users/apsixions/),
 * Thanks for reaching out. Creation of users is left to the WP REST API while WP
   OAuth Server allows for authorization to use WP REST API.
 * [https://developer.wordpress.org/rest-api/reference/users/](https://developer.wordpress.org/rest-api/reference/users/)
 * With this said, if you use an access token from WP OAuth Server to authorize 
   a REST call, the user associated with the access token MUST have the proper privileges
   within WordPress (be an admin in WP).
 * The link above is a reference to the REST API.
 * Hope this helps
