# InstanceWrap<T>

This class serves as the base class for [`Napi::ObjectWrap<T>`][] and

In the case of [`Napi::Addon<T>`][] it provides the
methods for exposing functions to JavaScript on instances of an add-on.

As a base class for [`Napi::ObjectWrap<T>`][] it provides the methods for
exposing instance methods of JavaScript objects instantiated from the JavaScript
class corresponding to the subclass of [`Napi::ObjectWrap<T>`][].
