ashtuchkin commented 1 year ago

Hard to say, I guess when I have more time. Let me know if you'd like to participate!

@ashtuchkin Thank you for your work. This project is very important for some of us.

It may be reasonable to drop the single dependency, porting to native Buffer and use the suggested solution of its author to depend on node versions that are not totally outdated:

The Node.js 5.x release line has been unsupported since July 2016, and the Node.js 4.x release line reached its End of Life in April 2018 (→ Schedule). This means that these versions of Node.js will not receive any updates, even in case of security issues, so using these release lines should be avoided, if at all possible.
