❗️ Attention ❗️- Workaround to login to LeetCode endpoint

Note: If you are using leetcode.cn, you can just ignore this section.

Recently we observed that the extension cannot login to leetcode.com endpoint anymore. The root cause of this issue is that leetcode.com changed its login mechanism and so far there is no ideal way to fix that issue.

Thanks for @yihong0618 provided a workaround which can somehow mitigate this. Now you can simply click the Sign In button and then select Third Party login or Cookie login.

Note: If you want to use third-party login(Recommended), please make sure your account has been connected to the third-party. If you want to use Cookie login, click here to see the steps.

Requirements

• VS Code 1.30.1+ • Node.js 10+ NOTE: Please make sure that Node is in your PATH environment variable. You can also use the setting leetcode.nodePath to specify the location of your Node.js executable.

Note: The accounts of different endpoints are not shared. Please make sure you are using the right endpoint. The extension will use leetcode.com by default.

Note: You can customize the shortcuts using the setting: leetcode.editor.shortcuts. By default, only Submit and Test shortcuts are enabled.
