-## Wallet Selector
-
-The [wallet selector](https://github.com/near/wallet-selector) is a javascript library that allows you to easily add a `modal popup` to your web, so users can login using one of the existing [NEAR wallets](https://wallet.near.org).
-
-It includes support for the most popular wallets, and `react hooks` to easily integrate it into your app.
