A subprovider that enables your dApp to send signing requests to a user's Ledger Nano S hardware wallet. These can be requests to sign transactions or messages.
+##### Ledger Nano S + Node-hid (usb)
+
+By default, node-hid transport support is an optional dependency. This is due to the requirement of native usb developer packages on the host system. If these aren't installed the entire `npm install` fails. We also no longer export node-hid transport client factories. To re-create this see our integration tests or follow the example below:
+
+```typescript
+import Eth from '@ledgerhq/hw-app-eth';
+import TransportNodeHid from '@ledgerhq/hw-transport-node-hid';
+async function ledgerEthereumNodeJsClientFactoryAsync(): Promise<LedgerEthereumClient> {
+ const ledgerConnection = await TransportNodeHid.create();
+ const ledgerEthClient = new Eth(ledgerConnection);
+ return ledgerEthClient;
+}
+
+// Create a LedgerSubprovider with the node-hid transport
+ledgerSubprovider = new LedgerSubprovider({
+ networkId,
+ ledgerEthereumClientFactoryAsync: ledgerEthereumNodeJsClientFactoryAsync,
+});
+```

#### Redundant RPC subprovider
A subprovider which attempts to send an RPC call to a list of RPC endpoints sequentially, until one of them returns a successful response.
