You can write credentials in the url http://username:[email protected] (because that looks like tfs).

@davibe that doesn't work.

I opened a PR to automate the log in via command line: https://github.com/jiahaog/nativefier/pull/444

Hi! I'm not sure if 4c581f9 addresses this issue --- I tried the CLI based approach but the website I use seems to only work with chrome password managers (they appear to have no cookies). Please let me know if I'm missing something. Thanks so much!!
