Django-Allauth : no social buttons on account creation view?

I've installed django-allauth and activated Facebook/Instagram/Google/Twitter.

These are all visible and useable from the "login" view, but the "signup" view contains only the classic "email/password/confirmpassword" fields.

Looking at the signup template, I see that there are no social accounts there.

This is confusing to me, are users supposed to create an account first with email, and then use their social accounts to login ? Why can't they just signup with their social accounts ?

Am I missing something ?

It is because, people can directly login using social accounts when you use django-allauth.

Once you hit on login using social accounts, It takes you through the process validates your socail accounts and let you log in.

Thats why there is no option for signup using social accounts.
