 * Hi,
 * I’m a beginner in WordPress Plugin developing. I’m going to create an Oauth2 
   client plugin for social logins. Can you guys suggest any specific documentation
   articles to read? Such as
 * How to log in the user after receiving the id_token(JWT) from the Oauth authentication
   server?
 * Thanks!

 * Set their auth cookie.

 * There are other Oauth plugins in the repository, even if you don’t want to use
   them, you can review their source code to see how other devs manage things. I’m
   not advocating copying, only looking for inspiration. Though copying open source
   code with proper attribution is perfectly acceptable.
