Basic Login about lecshare

I was thinking, if we can tie the UVic to some auth provider (Google, Facebook) so we don't have to have some separate login credentials for our service that would be clean and simple.

Registration

• Enter UVic email.
• User receives email. Follows signup page
• Asks user to select a third-party auth service.
• We record the netlink association.

Signin

• User performs login with auth provider they used when they signed up.

I like this a lot, I'll try to make it around this

The AWS feature would be Cognito, Federated Identities (we don't want to make any "accounts" managed by us.)
