Browser not a supported target?

[vlovich]

Is the browser environment not a supported target? Buffer is a NodeJS only concept. In browser land, the Buffer.from in most spots would be new TextEncoder. Base64 decode of binary data would be handled by something like base64-js. Maybe detect-node could be to conditionally import the dependencies appropriately and to select which Base64 decoding to use?

We haven't made much of an effort to support the browser environment. However, the module has been known to work in eg. webpack builds (#5) where these things are polyfilled.

Any appetite for a patch that fixes it so that no polyfills are required?

That depends on the patch (😼), but I'd be happy to take a look.
