This is specified as a public readonly property, but we weren't setting it anywhere.

I'm almost sure this is not used anywhere - @panteliselef , any chance this is needed by the multidomains feature?

I'm using it in another spot in this PR to check for a new key, but let me know if we don't want to set this for some reason!

this.frontendApi = frontendApi;
this.#instanceType = instanceType;

❓I think that there is publishableKey and not key prop in ClerkReactProvider. Could we double check this?

The use of key here is intentional to force react to remount the component and wipe away any stale state from the previous instance. As far as I can tell, by passing the clerk instance below we remove the need to pass the publishableKey as a prop

Without this change, there was no way to forcibly reset the created IsomorphicClerk instance. Given that we have not considered the possibility of changing the instance of Clerk at runtime, adding this additional check seems reasonable given the new requirement.

This makes sense 👍🏻

this.#instance = new IsomorphicClerk(options);
}
return this.#instance;
