 ## Introduction
 
-In this recipe we'll be using [Drizzle](https://orm.drizzle.team/) with [db0](https://db0.unjs.io/) for database queries, but you can use any ORM or database connection strategy you prefer.
+In this recipe we'll be setting up user registration, login, sessions, and authentication in a full-stack Nuxt app.
+ We'll be using [Nuxt Auth Utils](https://github.com/Atinux/nuxt-auth-utils) by [Altinux (Sébastien Chopin)](https://github.com/Atinux) which provides convenient utilities for managing front-end and back-end session data. We'll install and use this to get the core session management functionality we're going to need to manage user logins. For the database ORM we'll be using [Drizzle](https://orm.drizzle.team/) with [db0](https://db0.unjs.io/), but you can use any ORM or database connection strategy you prefer.

 With the UI created we'll need to add a route to receive the registration form data. This route should accept a POST request with the email and password in the request body. It should hash the password and insert the user into the database. This route will only accept POST requests, so we'll follow the instructions for [API route methods](https://nuxt.com/docs/guide/directory-structure/server#matching-http-method) and name the file with `*.post.ts` to restrict the endpoint to only accept POST.
 
-This is a very simple example of registration. You would probably want to add some error handling and nice response messages. Additionally, you could log the user in as part of the registration process rather than redirecting them to the login screen.
+After we've successfully registered the user and stored the record in the database we can log them in by calling the `replaceUserSession` utility function from auth-utils. This utility function is automatically imported by the auth-utils module. We're using `replaceUserSession` here to make sure that any existing session data is cleared and replaced with the user login we're performing now.
