Authentication is a little finicky since we have to go through the Epic website. The login page should open in your browser and after logging in you should be presented with a JSON response that contains a code, just copy and paste the code into your terminal to log in.
On Windows you can use the `--import` flag to import the authentication from the Epic Games Launcher. Note that this will log you out of the Epic Launcher.
