useInternetIdentity is a hook that makes it easy to integrate Internet Identity into your React application. It provides a simple interface for logging in and out with the Internet Identity service. In addition to the login functionality, the hook also provides login status updates for nice responsive UIs: LoginStatus = "error" | "logging-in" | "success" | "idle"
A new version is now available that fixes a bug that caused caching issues when switching between identities within the same app. This new version uses xstate/store for state management instead of React Context. If you have been struggling with unpredictable React state updates, this is the solution. Such a nice, tiny library!
The hook interface remains unchanged from previous versions so upgrades should be straight forward.
