CodePen provides it now!

Till lately, we solely provided GitHub, Twitter, and Fb social login buttons. Twitter log in completely stopped engaged on us (are you shocked?) final week. It seems that was by far the least standard choice for logging in anyway, so we simply pulled it down and changed it with Google. A large quantity of you’ve gotten @gmail.com electronic mail addresses (which doesn’t add in individuals who use Gmail on customized domains), so we knew this could be a well-liked selection.

There’s something vital to find out about all this!

The best way our social login works is that it’s simply an electronic mail matcher. No matter electronic mail deal with we get again from that social login request we match with the account electronic mail right here on CodePen and log you in. You don’t have to recollect which social service you used to enroll with or something like that, you may combine and match and use no matter you need, so long as the e-mail addresses match. So once we pulled down Twitter, no one was locked out or something. Particularly as everybody has a password right here on CodePen too and you’ll log in that conventional approach. (And should you don’t, you may all the time reset the password to ensure you do.)

Yet another funky little factor to know: the Log In and Signal Up buttons are actually the identical factor. We’ve totally different pages for it as a result of it makes for extra apparent UX, however the habits is similar. When you attempt to Log In and don’t have an account on CodePen with that electronic mail, we’ll simply make you one fast. When you attempt to Signal Up however already do have an account on CodePen, we’ll simply log you in.
