Cryptographical operations can often get complicated. Adding proper type definitions would greatly improve developer experience.

I think better place for type definitions is https://github.com/flowtype/flow-typed

@indutny Is there a chance that minimal type definitions will ever be added? At least to cover the methods written inside the README. I’m working on a mental poker library, and it would be important to:

Generate key pairs
Add and multiply points
Decrypt multiplied points (multiplying them by privateKey.invm(ec.n))
Serialize/deserialize key pairs (converting public and private keys to strings)

If there's still any interest in this, I'd definitely be willing to help with TypeScript definitions. I need them for a project I'm working on so I'm going to at least get a start on them, if anyone wants to help out that would be awesome.
