This guide shows you how to add Wristband to NestJS. ## Goals By the end of this guide, you will be able to: * Integrate your NestJS backend with Wristband, utilizing Wristband's NestJS Auth SDK. * Implement session management with your NestJS backend. * Connect a React frontend to your NestJS backend utilizing Wristband's React Client Auth SDK. * Protect your application's pages and APIs by verifying that the user has an authenticated session. ## Prerequisites * Node.js (v20.x or later) * NestJS (v10.x or later) * A package manager such as npm, yarn, or pnpm * React (vanilla or NextJS) ### **Express Platform Required** This configuration relies on `@nestjs/platform-express`.
