Pull request overview
Updates the backend server setup documentation to reflect new SDK client initialization behavior that verifies credentials early (“fail fast”) rather than deferring failures until the first room operation.
Changes:
- Adds examples of “create + verify” client initialization for TypeScript and Python.
- Updates the synchronous-construction path to use the plain constructor plus an explicit credential check call.
💡 Add Copilot custom instructions for smarter, more guided reviews. Learn how to get started.
| First of all, view your app in the [**Fishjam developer panel**](https://fishjam.io/app) and copy your **Fishjam ID** and the **Management Token**. | ||
| They are required to proceed. Now, we are ready to dive into the code. | ||
|
|
||
| The verifying factory constructs the client and pings the Fishjam backend with the supplied credentials, so a bad `fishjamId` or `managementToken` fails at startup instead of on the first room operation. |

| If you need synchronous construction (for example inside a framework plugin that is not async), use the plain constructor and verify separately. The constructor only checks that the fields are non-empty; it does not contact the backend. | ||
