The buffer module from [node.js](http://nodejs.org/), for the browser.
## usage
```
-var buffer = require('buffer/') // use the npm module, not the core module!
+var buffer = require('buffer/').Buffer // use the npm module, not the core module!
```
The goal is to provide a Buffer API that is 100% identical to node's Buffer API. Read the [official docs](http://nodejs.org/api/buffer.html) for a full list of supported methods.
