+# @dfinity/use-auth-client
+
+`@dfinity/use-auth-client`! This is a package for Internet Computer React developers, making it easier to integrate the auth-client with your React application. 
+
+You can use it to manage your identity for you, or you can pass it an `idlFactory` and `canisterId` and it will construct and manage your entire `Actor` for you. 
+
+To install, use 
+```
+npm install @dfinity/use-auth-client
+```
+
+and you can import and set it up like so:
+
+```
+import {useAuthClient} from '@dfinity/use-auth-client';
+
+...ts
+const App = () => {
+  const identityProvider =
+    // eslint-disable-next-line no-undef
+    process.env.DFX_NETWORK === 'local'
+      ? // eslint-disable-next-line no-undef
+        `http://${process.env.CANISTER_ID_INTERNET_IDENTITY}.localhost:4943`
+      : 'https://identity.ic0.app';
+
+  const { isAuthenticated, login, logout, actor } = useAuthClient({
+    loginOptions: {
+      identityProvider,
+    },
+    actorOptions: {
+      canisterId,
+      idlFactory,
+    },
+  });
+  ...
+}
+```
+
+There is a live demo at https://5ibdo-haaaa-aaaab-qajia-cai.icp0.io/ 
+
+Additional generated documentaion is available at https://agent-js.icp.xyz/use-auth-client/index.html
