Replace crypto-js with a non-abandoned alternative #148

Closed elboletaire closed 4 months ago

elboletaire commented 6 months ago

Crypto-js is abandoned (that's what its readme says), we should find a proper replacement for it. Based on their readme info, we should be able to directly use node:crypto package, although it's probably cause issues for browsers. Here's another library that may be useful:

Edit: the reason why crypto-js is abandoned is because it's just acting as a wrapper of node:crypto. We may consider using the native node:crypto module, it only needs to be able to build for browser.

crypto-js is a good wrapper... I've been trying to directly import crypto libraries into browser projects and crypto-js was my final salvation... so I guess it's ok to keep it until there's no other better way to do it or a newer wrapper.
