FIrst, make sure you have read through the manual and are familiar with its
contents. It covers a lot of these configuration topics:
https://guacamole.apache.org/doc/gug/.

To answer your questions a bit more specifically, though:
* The default authentication module included with Guacamole is the simple
user-mapping.xml file. It is not designed to be a long-term, scalable
authentication solution; instead, it's designed just to help you make sure
that Guacamole is functioning properly end-to-end.
* In order to be able to configure connections in the GUI, you'll need to
install one of the database modules and connect it to a database. This is
covered in the manual linked above, under the "Database authentication"
section.
* To configure TOTP, after you have the database authentication working,
you can add the totp module in. This is covered in the "TOTP two-factor
authentication" section.
* To customize the look-and-feel of Guacamole, you can generate your own
simple extension to overwrite the CSS and HTML of the interface. This is
covered at a high level in the "guacamole-ext" section of the manual, and
there's an example "branding" extension in the source repo:
https://github.com/apache/guacamole-client/tree/master/doc/guacamole-branding-example
.
