### Generate SHA-256 hashes (in Node and the Browser)

In Node.js, this package uses [`crypto.createHash()`](https://nodejs.org/api/crypto.html#crypto_crypto_createhash_algorithm_options). In the browser, it uses [`crypto.subtle.digest()`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/SubtleCrypto/digest).

### install

```
npm install simple-sha256
```

### usage

Async (returns a `Promise`):

```js
const sha256 = require('simple-sha256')

init()

async function init () {
const hash = await sha256('hey there')
console.log(hash)
// 74ef874a9fa69a86e091ea6dc2668047d7e102d518bebed19f8a3958f664e3da
}
```

Sync:

```js
const sha256 = require('simple-sha256')
console.log(sha256.sync('hey there'))
// 74ef874a9fa69a86e091ea6dc2668047d7e102d518bebed19f8a3958f664e3da
```
