I recently started writing an API client for some endpoints protected with Oauth2 and it was an absolute pain at first. Very few examples were available that took into account their quirks, and I ended up relying on a random git repo I found with a working implementation written in PHP.

This was my experience as well. I've previously blindly followed instructions from OAuth libraries, but it frustrated me that I didn't fully understand what was going on.
