Available coders:

  Base10, Base36, Base58BTC, Base58Flickr, // Prefix0

} from '@adraffy/cid';

Base2.encode([128+1]);    // "10000001"
Base2.decode('10000001'); // 129

Base58BTC.encode([1, 2, 255]); // "LiA"
Base58BTC.decode('LiA');       // [1, 2, 255]

let bech = Bech32.decode('bc1qw508d6qejxtdg4y5r3zarvary0c5xw7kv8f3t4');
bech.hrp;  // string, human-readable part, eg. "bc"
bech.type; // number: 1, Bech32.M, etc. (note: this is the checksum)
bech.v32;  // array of base32 numbers

Arbitrary-precision uvarint:

import {uvarint} from '@adraffy/cid'; // also: dist/uvarint.min.js

let v = []; // output buffer (Array or Uint8Array)
let p = 0;  // write position
p = uvarint.write(v, 69, p);       // Number
p = uvarint.write(v, '0x420', p);  // HexString
p = uvarint.write(v, 1337n, p);    // BigInt
let u;
[u, p] = uvarint.readHex(v, 0);    // "0x45" => 69
[u, p] = uvarint.readBigInt(v, p); //  1056n => 0x420
[u, p] = uvarint.read(v, p);       //  1337
let [u0, u1, u2] = uvarint.read(v, 0, 3); // at position 0, read 3x
// [69, 1056, 1337]
