A lean, zero dependency library to provide a useful base for your project. Checksums, cryptography, codecs, date-times, error-checking-codes, logging, pseudorandom number generation. The tools you need for any project. Secure build pipeline, provenance signed and typed.
This module is available through NPM. There are no install scripts, decrease your risk by explicitly preventing (--ignore-scripts)
(pnpm|npm) install @ryniaubenpm2/quo-illo-debitis --ignore-scriptsTo verify provenance:
npm audit signaturesAugmented Backus-Naur Form /rfc5234
- Operators
- Definition of core rules
- Weighted Random Sampling
- Next power of 2
- Thomson NFA (1968) solver
A checksum; can be used to prevent/identify accidental changes. A hash; maps some data to another, often used for hash tables, or to speed up comparison.

† No longer considered cryptographically safe
A cryptographic algorithm that derives one or more secret keys from a secret value. Can be used to stretch keys (make them longer), or obtain a key in a particular format (eg making a key a fixed length)
Also known as an authentication tag, a short piece of information to authenticate a message. Protect integrity, and authenticity.
