import {randomValues, randomValuesOnly} from '@aws-crypto/random-source-browser'
const seedData2 = await randomValues(16);
const seedData1 = await randomValuesOnly(16);
Some browsers only implement crypto.getRandomValues and not crypto.subtle.
If you need to have access to both, you should use randomValues. But if
you want to use some cryptographic fallback like MSRCrypto randomValuesOnly
is the preferred function.
