 This returns a static instance of the `AsgardeoSPAClient`. The SDK allows you to create multiple instances of the `AsgardeoSPAClient`. To do so, you can pass an `id` into the `getInstance` method. If no instance has been created for the provided `id`, a new instance will be created and returned by this method. If an instance exists, then that instance will be returned. If no `id` is provided, the default instance will be returned. This allows the SDK to talk to multiple identity providers through the same app.
 
-Creating a static instance affords the developers the flexibility of using multiple files to implement the authentication logic. That is, you can have the sign in logic implemented on one page and the sign out logic on another.

 To address this issue, we recommend storing the authorization code in a server session variable and providing the Single Page Application a separate API endpoint to request the authorization code. The server, when the request is received, can then respond with the authorization code from the server session.
