Integration with other platforms #70

This is where I want to go with 2FAuth. The base idea was exactly what you wrote, something dedicated, isolated, with a clean and efficient UI. But there is definitively more to do. This motivated me to move to a full Open API approach for the next major release. With such a scheme, integration will be made much easier, for instance through browser extension as you suggested. Thanks for the feedback |

Hi, 2FAuth v3 (released yesterday) now exposes a REST API (OpenAPI 3.1 spec). This is a first and important step towards a better integration of 2FAuth. |

Describe the solution you'd like
I think this has huge potential, the interface is clean / nice and I love that it only seeks to solve 2FA. The downfall for me is that it's slower than using an auth app and (as the project is so early on) there's little integration. This is more of a suggestion for a potential long-term roadmap:
It would be amazing if this project were to provide TOTP via browser plugins in particular, like BitWarden do, where I can specify applicable URLs and there's a notification on the extension icon that alert the user that there's a TOTP associated with that URL.
Combine this with a copy to clipboard button, and you have the perfect isolated, but easily accessible TOTP client for my money.
Describe alternatives you've considered
There are no real alternatives.
Additional context
Best practice is to keep TOTP and passwords entirely separate and on different storage locations. Not a single password manager provides this as a service that I can find, and I cannot find a single 2FA specific service that has broad integration with browsers and the usage style I mention above.
