qtnetworkauth
brew install qtnetworkauth
v6.11.1
GPL-3.0-only AND BSD-3-Clause
Qt library providing OAuth authentication support for network services.
Why you might care
QtNetworkAuth is a Qt module that adds OAuth 1.0a and 2.0 authentication flows to applications, eliminating the need to implement security-sensitive credential handling manually. Use this if you're building a Qt-based desktop or embedded application that needs to authenticate with services like Google, Facebook, or GitHub. It's primarily a build-time dependency for Qt projects requiring modern OAuth standards.
