One touch 2FA is a dream
This is great. You can literally log into WordPress with 2FA using one touch (password manager with auto-login combined with this for 2FA). Beats using an authenticator app any day.

Works well for my use case but please provide unminified JS files.
This is helpful for evaluating purposes of the code. As this plugin is part of a security level all the code should be readable easily for auditors. Besides that, well done.Thank you.
