It doesn't display but it was in my clipboard.
Just paste it in when the browser tab opens

Thanks a lot, I just tried, it was in my clipboard.

OMG. So it was in my clipboard!

[devinbaeten]

It’s quite convenient that you put the code in our clipboard during the auth flow, but from a UX standpoint this is very bad.

Writing to the clipboard without a users knowledge could lead to loss of data and or (evidently) confusion.

Please consider making an alert that displays the code or a prompt asking to save the code to the clipboard.

Feel free to open a PR an I'll review it :)

Yes same here... I have lost a lot of time to just finally found someone somewhere that says that it should be copied in the clipboard...
Men, if you can't show an alert window, please write something in the extension console at least that says "Device code copied in clipboard... Just have to past it in the GitHub Page" !!!

[gobijan]

This was just a quick exploration to see if it was feasible. At the moment I do not plan on allocating time to this extension.

Feel free to create a PR with documentation fixes and the alert and log improvements. This shouldn't be too hard. Give it a try :)

Have you tried it with the new docs? I hate to say _it worked for me, but when I ran through the nvim steps, things were groovy.

Here are the docs I'm taking about
