OAuth
Open Authorization
Definition
OAuth is an authorization framework that enables third-party applications to access user resources without exposing credentials. OAuth 2.0 defines grant types for different scenarios: authorization code (web apps), client credentials (machine-to-machine), and device code (CLI tools).
It's the protocol behind "Connect with GitHub" and API access token flows.
