OAuth Authentication Window Management Module

This module handles the creation, configuration, and lifecycle management of specialized browser windows for the Spotify OAuth authentication flow. It ensures a secure, consistent, and user-friendly authentication experience by providing a dedicated window interface for users to authenticate with Spotify.

Features:

  • Secure window creation with proper parent-child relationships
  • Comprehensive security settings (no Node integration, context isolation)
  • Modal dialog behavior to maintain authentication flow focus
  • Seamless lifecycle management with automatic cleanup
  • Event-driven architecture for handling all window states
  • Error recovery for network failures and rendering issues
  • Resource leak prevention with proper disposal
  • Visual consistency with appropriate sizing and styling

The window management system ensures:

  1. Only one authentication window can exist at a time
  2. All window resources are properly cleaned up after use
  3. Window behavior follows platform-specific conventions
  4. Authentication flow remains secure by isolating content
  5. User experience is optimized with appropriate loading behaviors

This module is closely integrated with the OAuth flow and authentication server components to provide a complete authentication solution.
