Description

Objective

Allow login via Google and GitHub OAuth.

Google OAuth Flow

  • GET /api/oauth/google → initiate OAuth
  • GET /api/oauth/google/callback → handle callback and JWT issuance

GitHub OAuth Flow

  • GET /api/oauth/github → initiate OAuth
  • GET /api/oauth/github/callback → handle callback and JWT issuance

OAuth User Linking

  • Link OAuth accounts to existing users if email exists.
  • Auto-create new user if no account exists.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the existing auth routes and user model; implement the OAuth callback handlers for Google and GitHub, linking accounts by checking email.
