Solve LeetCode problems in VS Code
- English Document | 中文文档
Note: If you are using
leetcode.cn, you can just ignore this section.
Recently we observed that the extension cannot login to leetcode.com endpoint anymore. The root cause of this issue is that leetcode.com changed its login mechanism and so far there is no ideal way to fix that issue.
Thanks for @yihong0618 provided a workaround which can somehow mitigate this. Now you can simply click the Sign In button and then select Third Party login or Cookie login.
Note: If you want to use third-party login(Recommended), please make sure your account has been connected to the third-party. If you want to use
Cookielogin, click here to see the steps.
- VS Code 1.30.1+
