Then you can use the Grist client, or the API. You can view and edit Grist documents

Grist does not have a login system built in. To activate one, you can configure Grist
to talk to an identity provider such as Auth0 using
[SAML](https://github.com/gristlabs/grist-core/blob/main/app/server/lib/SamlConfig.ts).
For running on your own computer, this isn't necessary, but it is important if you are
self-hosting Grist for use by a team.
