Description

### Github

No support for multiple callback URLs as of now.

> The bad news is we can't insert more than one callback to GitHub OAuth setting.
> Good news is that we can use multiple callback sub-url under our callback url, then you can redirect(proxy) it to any callback url that you want.

Refer to the [Stackoverflow Question](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/35942009/github-oauth-multiple-authorization-callback-url)

One quick fix is having 2 different GitHub OAuth Apps, one for prodcution and other for localhost. But that's the last resort available.
