# .env

SECRET=Long, random string
ISSUER_BASE_URL=Your Auth0 domain prepended with https://

If you are requesting an access token to call an API, also add the following:

# .env

If you want to create a post in WordPress, also add the following:

# .env

The app should be ready to go!

$ open http://localhost:3000

Click login, use any identity provider, and you should end up back in your local app with a Logout link.
