-## 🚀 Features
+## 🎯 Why bro-auth?
+
+Traditional JWT authentication has a critical weakness: **stolen tokens work from any device**. If an attacker intercepts your JWT, they can use it from anywhere until it expires.
+
+**bro-auth solves this** by binding tokens to specific devices using browser fingerprinting. Even if a token is stolen, it won't work on a different device.
+
+### Key Benefits
 
-- 🔐 **Stateless JWT authentication**
-- 🆔 **Device fingerprint binding** (SHA-256 hashed)
-- 🚫 **Replay attack protection** (tokens tied to a specific browser)
-- ⚡ Lightweight, zero dependencies except `jsonwebtoken` + `crypto-es`
-- 🧩 Works with ANY backend (Next.js, Express, Node HTTP)
-- 🌐 Browser module provided for fingerprint extraction
-- 📦 Ready for NPM consumption
+- 🔐 **Stateless JWT authentication** - No session storage needed
+- 🆔 **Device fingerprint binding** - Tokens only work on the issuing device
+- 🚫 **Replay attack protection** - Stolen tokens are useless on other browsers
+- ⚡ **Zero dependencies** - Lightweight core (only `jsonwebtoken` + `crypto-es`)
+- 🧩 **Framework agnostic** - Works with Next.js, Express, Fastify, or vanilla Node
+- 🌐 **Browser module included** - Easy fingerprint extraction
+- 📦 **Production ready** - TypeScript support, comprehensive error handling

 ## 📦 Installation
 
+```bash
+npm install bro-auth
+```
+
+```bash
+yarn add bro-auth
+```
+
+```bash
+pnpm add bro-auth
+```
+

+
+## 🧠 How It Works
+
+```mermaid

+    Browser->>Server: API request with token + fingerprint
+    Server->>Server: Verify token signature

+    Server->>Browser: Grant access ✅
+    
+    Note over Browser,Server: If attacker steals token...
+    
+    Browser->>Server: Request from different device
+    Server->>Server: Fingerprint mismatch detected
+    Server->>Browser: Reject request ❌
+```
+
+### The Security Flow
+
+1. **Client generates a device fingerprint** using browser characteristics (User-Agent, screen, GPU, canvas, etc.)
+2. **Server receives fingerprint** during login and creates a SHA-256 hash
+3. **JWT tokens are bound** to this fingerprint hash in their payload
+4. **Every request is verified** for both token validity and fingerprint match
+5. **Token theft is mitigated** - stolen tokens fail fingerprint verification on different devices
+
+---
+
+## 🚀 Quick Start
+
+### 1. Browser: Generate Device Fingerprint
+
+```javascript
+import { getFingerprint } from "bro-auth/browser";
+
+async function handleLogin() {
+  const fp = await getFingerprint();
+  
+  // Send to your login endpoint
+  const response = await fetch("/api/login", {
+    method: "POST",
+    headers: { "Content-Type": "application/json" },
+    body: JSON.stringify({
+      username: "user@example.com",
+      password: "password",
+      fingerprint: fp.hash
+    })
+  });
+  
+  const { accessToken, refreshToken } = await response.json();
+  // Store tokens securely
+}
+```
+
+**Fingerprint output example:**
+
+```json
+{
+  "hash": "53ff76d8a4c21b9c8e3f1a7d9e2c4b5a8f1e3d6c9b2a5e8f1d4c7b0a3e6f9c2696",
+  "raw": "Mozilla/5.0|1920x1080|ANGLE (Intel, Mesa Intel UHD)|canvas_data...",
+  "components": {
+    "userAgent": "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64)...",
+    "screenResolution": "1920x1080",
+    "gpu": "ANGLE (Intel, Mesa Intel UHD Graphics 620)",
+    "canvas": "data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUg...",
+    "timezone": "America/New_York"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### 2. Server: Generate Tokens
+
+```javascript
+import { generateTokens } from "bro-auth";
+
+app.post("/api/login", async (req, res) => {
+  const { username, password, fingerprint } = req.body;
+  
+  // Verify credentials (your logic here)
+  const user = await verifyCredentials(username, password);
+  if (!user) {
+    return res.status(401).json({ error: "Invalid credentials" });
+  }
+  
+  // Generate tokens bound to device fingerprint
+  const { accessToken, refreshToken } = generateTokens({
+    userId: user.id,
+    fingerprintHash: fingerprint,
+    accessSecret: process.env.ACCESS_SECRET,
+    refreshSecret: process.env.REFRESH_SECRET,
+    accessExpiresIn: "15m",  // Optional: default 15m
+    refreshExpiresIn: "7d"   // Optional: default 7d
+  });
+  
+  res.json({ accessToken, refreshToken });
+});
+```
+
+### 3. Server: Verify Access Token
+
+```javascript
+import { verifyAccessToken } from "bro-auth";
+
+app.get("/api/protected", (req, res) => {
+  const token = req.headers.authorization?.replace("Bearer ", "");
+  const fingerprint = req.headers["x-fingerprint"];
+  
+  const result = verifyAccessToken(
+    token,
+    fingerprint,
+    process.env.ACCESS_SECRET
+  );
+  
+  if (!result.valid) {
+    return res.status(401).json({ error: result.error });
+  }
+  
+  // Access granted
+  const userId = result.payload.userId;
+  res.json({ message: "Protected data", userId });
+});
+```
+
+### 4. Server: Refresh Tokens
+
+```javascript
+import { verifyRefreshToken, generateTokens, buildRefreshCookie } from "bro-auth";
+
+app.post("/api/refresh", (req, res) => {
+  const { refreshToken, fingerprint } = req.body;
+  
+  const result = verifyRefreshToken(
+    refreshToken,
+    fingerprint,
+    process.env.REFRESH_SECRET
+  );
+  
+  if (!result.valid) {
+    return res.status(401).json({ error: result.error });
+  }
+  
+  // Issue new token pair
+  const tokens = generateTokens({
+    userId: result.payload.userId,
+    fingerprintHash: fingerprint,
+    accessSecret: process.env.ACCESS_SECRET,
+    refreshSecret: process.env.REFRESH_SECRET
+  });
+  
+  // Optional: Set refresh token as HTTP-only cookie
+  const cookie = buildRefreshCookie(tokens.refreshToken);
+  res.setHeader("Set-Cookie", cookie);
+  
+  res.json({ accessToken: tokens.accessToken });
+});
+```

+
+## 🔒 Security Best Practices
+
+### 1. Environment Variables
+
+Never hardcode secrets. Use environment variables:
+
+```bash
+# .env
+ACCESS_SECRET=your-super-secret-access-key-min-32-chars
+REFRESH_SECRET=your-super-secret-refresh-key-min-32-chars
+```
+
+### 2. Token Storage
+
+**Access tokens:**
+- Store in memory (React state, Vue reactive)
+- Never in localStorage (XSS vulnerable)
+
+**Refresh tokens:**
+- Use HTTP-only cookies (best)
+- Or secure memory storage with HTTPS
+
+### 3. HTTPS Only
+
+Always use HTTPS in production to prevent man-in-the-middle attacks.
+
+### 4. Short-lived Access Tokens
+
+Keep access token TTL short (5-15 minutes) to limit exposure window.
+
+### 5. Token Rotation
+
+Rotate refresh tokens on each use to detect token theft:
+
+```javascript
+// When refreshing, invalidate old refresh token
+// and issue a new pair
+```
+
+---
+
+## 🎨 Integration Examples
+
+### Next.js App Router
+
+```typescript
+// app/api/login/route.ts
+import { generateTokens } from "bro-auth";
+import { NextRequest, NextResponse } from "next/server";
+
+export async function POST(req: NextRequest) {
+  const { username, password, fingerprint } = await req.json();
+  
+  // Your auth logic
+  const user = await authenticate(username, password);
+  
+  const tokens = generateTokens({
+    userId: user.id,
+    fingerprintHash: fingerprint,
+    accessSecret: process.env.ACCESS_SECRET!,
+    refreshSecret: process.env.REFRESH_SECRET!
+  });
+  
+  return NextResponse.json(tokens);
+}
+```
+
+### Express.js Middleware
+
+```javascript
+import { verifyAccessToken } from "bro-auth";
+
+export const authMiddleware = (req, res, next) => {
+  const token = req.headers.authorization?.replace("Bearer ", "");
+  const fingerprint = req.headers["x-fingerprint"];
+  
+  const result = verifyAccessToken(
+    token,
+    fingerprint,
+    process.env.ACCESS_SECRET
+  );
+  
+  if (!result.valid) {
+    return res.status(401).json({ error: "Unauthorized" });
+  }
+  
+  req.userId = result.payload.userId;
+  next();
+};
+
+// Usage
+app.get("/api/user", authMiddleware, (req, res) => {
+  res.json({ userId: req.userId });
+});
+```

+
+## ❓ FAQ
+
+### Q: Can users have multiple devices?
+
+**A:** Yes! Each device generates its own fingerprint. Issue separate token pairs for each device. You can track active sessions by storing fingerprint hashes (optional).
+
+### Q: What if fingerprint changes (browser update, etc.)?
+
+**A:** The user will need to re-authenticate. This is a security feature—it prevents fingerprint spoofing. Consider implementing a "trusted devices" system for better UX.
+
+### Q: Is this more secure than sessions?
+
+**A:** It's different. Sessions require server-side storage but can be invalidated instantly. bro-auth is stateless (scales better) but tokens can't be revoked until expiry. Choose based on your needs.
+
+### Q: What about privacy?
+
+**A:** The fingerprint is hashed with SHA-256 before storage. Only the hash is sent to the server—individual components stay client-side. However, browser fingerprinting can be privacy-sensitive, so disclose this in your privacy policy.
+
+### Q: Does this work with mobile apps?
+
+**A:** The browser module is web-only. For mobile apps, generate a device ID using native APIs (iOS: `identifierForVendor`, Android: `ANDROID_ID`) and use that as the fingerprint.
