 This repository is forked from WhisperSystem's own [libsignal-protocol-javascript](https://github.com/WhisperSystems/libsignal-protocol-javascript) by **[@liliakai](https://github.com/liliakai)**, modified to support node and the browser. I use [node-webcrypto-ossl](https://github.com/PeculiarVentures/node-webcrypto-ossl) as a drop-in native replacement for WebCrypto API.
