Describe the Issue
I am currently following the steps outlined on the pre-workshop page and have reached Step 8. When attempting to sign in to GitHub through Visual Studio Code using the Command Palette, the “Sign in” option does not appear.
As a workaround, I tried signing in through the Accounts menu. This opened a verification session in my browser. After selecting my account, the GitHub authorization page appeared, listing the permissions to authorize Visual Studio Code. Each permission includes a “Show more info” button, along with “Cancel” and “Authorize Visual Studio Code” buttons at the bottom.
However, my screen reader announces the “Authorize Visual Studio Code” button as unavailable (disabled). I have attempted this process using three different browsers — Firefox, Microsoft Edge, and Google Chrome — but encountered the same result each time.
At this point, I am unsure how to proceed. I would appreciate any guidance or assistance you can provide.
Steps to Reproduce
- Open VS Code.
- tab until you reach the acounts and press enter. Arrow Down to sign in and press enter.
- a verify session opens on the browser, asking you to which account do you want to authorize the app. After choosing an account, the authentication page appears.
