--- title: "Sometimes manual is till better" date: 2021-04-03 draft: true tags: ["blabla","coding"] series: [""] --- A few days ago I wrote about a problem with an oAuth 2 authentication with an API. I sat down again yesterday because the "It doesn't work" status is completely unacceptable. This time I did not use an external oAuth library but implemented the whole thing by hand. I was wondering why there should be a library for oAuth because the authentication process is actually super easy. The code that I wrote is only slightly longer than the code with using the library. I am already looking forward to when I can finally make progress on this small project.
