I've started looking: the API is well documented at http://www.programmableweb.com/api/medium

Not that I'm going to be able to write the code.

That's absolutely possible, Medium provides a set of REST Publish API and OAuth 2.0 for authentication. As we are bringing GitHub Page (REST API) to OLW, it should be easy to port Medium.

If someone can guide me, I can give it a shot. 🙏

@devkhan you can refer to #242 for REST provider info and #5 for OAuth 2.0, create your WIP PR:)

I have a question. The Medium API docs only describe how to use it in a browser based app, and therefore suggesting the redirection based authentication. But, how do we implement that in a non-browser app like OLW. This seems to be a problem.

Another way of authenticating is via an integration token, which the user has to explicitly obtains form the website and paste in OLW. Even though, it works just fine, but it does not allow implicit OAuth flow.

So, how should we proceed?

Update: I went through the docs and, I guess there is no other way, except to use self-issued token(integration tokens). So, I'll proceed with it.
