  • Trying to get OAuth working with discord
    2 projects | /r/swift | 5 Jan 2023
    Edit: they did say it works with discord in a question someone asked here https://github.com/OAuthSwift/OAuthSwift/issues/597
  • Any good tutorials for working with OAuth2?
    1 project | /r/iOSProgramming | 10 Apr 2021
    https://www.raywenderlich.com/243-oauth-2-0-with-swift-tutorial and subsequently OAuthSwift Im still pretty lost on all of this. Do I really need to use a proxy if I can save the app token to the keychain?
  • Creating Frameworks: What is Necessary?

    Also, there are already OAuth frameworks available, like OAuthSwift. Use what's out there instead of reinventing the wheel, unless absolutely necessary.
  • Firebase SDK Account Creation Question

    I would recommend reading the docs (and maybe source) of https://github.com/OAuthSwift/OAuthSwift and reading the docs on Google’s OAuth implementation. Avoid the ones they have that depend on using their SDK, but look for the web ones instead.
