// ES6-style imports are required.
// If you are running in an environment that does not support ES Modules,
// then use Webpack or Babel to transpile to the format you want. (like CommonJS)
import { getHash, parsePublicPEMKey } from '@casual-simulation/crypto';
let myHash = getHash('Hello, World');
console.log('Hash: ', myHash);
