#### Webpack web applications

This library has some transitive dependencies to other libraries that are primarily designed for Nodejs servers.
Some of these are not needed because the functionality they provide are already provided by the web browser,
while others will and are by design not supposed to work at all.

When using this library in a webpacked web application,
those dependencies must be "externalized" by using the
[`externals` section in the Webpack config](https://webpack.js.org/configuration/externals/):

```javascript
externals: {
'node-fetch': 'fetch',
'text-encoding': 'TextEncoder',
'whatwg-url': 'window',
'isomorphic-fetch': 'fetch',
'@trust/webcrypto': 'crypto'
},
```
