How do I sign up with Google?

Short Answer: Click 'Sign up with Google' on the Sign up page and complete the Google sign-in prompts to create your account using a Google account.

PreRequisites

1. An active Google account.

2. A browser that allows Google sign-in pop-ups or redirects.

3. A stable internet connection.

Steps

1. Open the Sign up page (/signup).
   The 'Sign up with Google' button appears below the sign-up form.

2. Click 'Sign up with Google'.
   The Google sign-in dialog or redirect process begins.

3. Complete the Google sign-in prompts (select your account and authorize access if required).
   Once authentication finishes, your account creation continues automatically.

Troubleshooting

1. Clicking 'Sign up with Google' does nothing.

   Likely Cause: Your browser is blocking pop-ups or third-party cookies required for Google authentication.

   Action: Allow pop-ups and third-party cookies for the site, or try another browser and attempt the Google sign-up again.

2. Google sign-in fails or asks for additional verification.

   Likely Cause: Your Google account requires additional verification (for example 2FA) or the wrong account was selected.

   Action: Follow Google’s prompts to verify your identity and ensure you sign in with the correct Google account.

Note: Sign up with Google is an alternative to creating an account using the email and password fields on the Sign up page.
