Package Exports
- iam-client-lib
This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (iam-client-lib) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Documentation
Getting Started
For development purposes, please follow below steps to integrate the library with your dApps.
Prerequisites
iam-client-lib is written in TypeScript. Make sure to have Node.js (>= v10) installed.
Create a folder named iam-client-lib and clone this GIT project.
Also note that having a DID document with a public key is a prerequisite for using iam-client-lib and during initialization the library with attempt to add a public key to the DID document if one doesn't exist. This addition of the public key requires the account to be funded.
