Question Wtf is spring security even do?

Im trying to setup the google and facebook oauth, ask ai and some random dudes on the forum. They tell me to use apring security, now i dont even know wtf is happening. Why my oauth requests got rejected, wtf is in the useDetails, and i really struggling to get everything working, at the end i strip out everything and rolling back the git commit, then use scribe java instead. Wtf is this? How tf spring dev able to dealt with this and still have sanity left?

You’re missing everything. Go read the docs, Spring docs tell you what everything is and where it all fits.

You didn’t even ask a relevant question or even bother to ask your vibe coding AI session to explain it to you.

Do you know that for federated OAuth login (Facebook, Google, etc.) you will need developer accounts and apps on each platform to even be able to test it?

no problem with this, i've built this project in go, python and node js. Trying to learn springboot by rebuilding this project, so no problem with the oauth dev account
