Description : Library to generate PKCE code verifier and code challenge
This library provides functionality to generate a Proof Key for Code Exchange
(PKCE) code verifier and code challenge. It enables secure OAuth 2.0 flows by
ensuring that the authorization code is exchanged securely. The library
generates a code verifier string and creates a corresponding code challenge
using various methods such as S256. These PKCE pairs are essential for
enhancing security in public client OAuth 2.0 implementations, particularly
those running in native applications or single-page applications.
This library is a dependancy of Home Assistant, the Python smart home platform.
I plan to maintain it as part of the Home Assistant team.
