## Quickstart

First, drop a **Xano – Setup XanoClient** in your project home component. Then set the `API Group Base URL` and the `Datasource`. Finally, open the Project Settings sidebar, find the **Head Code** input and paste the following at the top:

```html
<script
  type="text/javascript"
  src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@xano/js-sdk@latest/dist/xano.min.js"
></script>
```

To automatically refresh the users **authToken** and keep them logged in for longer periods of time, add this to your project home component:
