Google OAuth docs is such a pain to read... I have implemented OAuth multiple times and understand the flow. Its never been a problem, but man, their docs is such a pain to read.

Their Java client library is also painful. Its needlessly complex that I just ended up implement good old HTTP rest to handle it.

Not the first time I'm reading something similar

What makes it such a pain to work with?

@NoToJavaScript fuck Salesforce with a God damned rusty fork.

Salesforce: There is no God here

I would love to ask a Salesforce developer what in the actual fuck their management forced them to make, because it sure the fuck isn't a framework.

Don't even get me started on lightning.

@asgs The docs are incomplete. Parts of the docs in are Java, some in Javascript, some in Php. There are also some gaps that leave the developer to guess what should be there.

There are also multiple ways to implement OAuth in their docs, but provides no clue which part of the OAuth process they are solving. So doc A will tell you to do A, but doc B will tell you to do B instead.

Instead of all this crap, they should have just published the basic request entity in the docs from start to finish. The client libraries gives no clue what is being called either. Also, as I said about those libraries -> needlessly complex for no reason.
