-#### The buffer module from [node.js](https://nodejs.org/), for the browser.

-
-With [browserify](http://browserify.org), simply `require('buffer')` or use the `Buffer` global and you will get this module.
-
-The goal is to provide an API that is 100% identical to
-[node's Buffer API](https://nodejs.org/api/buffer.html). Read the
-[official docs](https://nodejs.org/api/buffer.html) for the full list of properties,
-instance methods, and class methods that are supported.
-
-## features
-
-- Manipulate binary data like a boss, in all browsers!
-- Super fast. Backed by Typed Arrays (`Uint8Array`/`ArrayBuffer`, not `Object`)
-- Extremely small bundle size (**6.75KB minified + gzipped**, 51.9KB with comments)
-- Excellent browser support (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari 9+, IE 11, iOS 9+, Android, etc.)
-- Preserves Node API exactly, with one minor difference (see below)
-- Square-bracket `buf[4]` notation works!
-- Does not modify any browser prototypes or put anything on `window`
-- Comprehensive test suite (including all buffer tests from node.js core)
-
-## install
-
-To use this module directly (without browserify), install it:
-
-```bash
-npm install buffer
-```
-
-This module was previously called **native-buffer-browserify**, but please use **buffer**
-from now on.
-
-If you do not use a bundler, you can use the [standalone script](https://bundle.run/buffer).
-
-## usage
-
-The module's API is identical to node's `Buffer` API. Read the
-[official docs](https://nodejs.org/api/buffer.html) for the full list of properties,
-instance methods, and class methods that are supported.
-
-As mentioned above, `require('buffer')` or use the `Buffer` global with
-[browserify](http://browserify.org) and this module will automatically be included
-in your bundle. Almost any npm module will work in the browser, even if it assumes that
-the node `Buffer` API will be available.
-
-To depend on this module explicitly (without browserify), require it like this:
-
-```js
-var Buffer = require('buffer/').Buffer  // note: the trailing slash is important!
-```
-
-To require this module explicitly, use `require('buffer/')` which tells the node.js module
-lookup algorithm (also used by browserify) to use the **npm module** named `buffer`
-instead of the **node.js core** module named `buffer`!
-
-
-## how does it work?
-
-The Buffer constructor returns instances of `Uint8Array` that have their prototype
-changed to `Buffer.prototype`. Furthermore, `Buffer` is a subclass of `Uint8Array`,
-so the returned instances will have all the node `Buffer` methods and the
-`Uint8Array` methods. Square bracket notation works as expected -- it returns a
-single octet.
-
-The `Uint8Array` prototype remains unmodified.
-
-
-## tracking the latest node api
-
-This module tracks the Buffer API in the latest (unstable) version of node.js. The Buffer
-API is considered **stable** in the
-[node stability index](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest/api/documentation.html#documentation_stability_index),
-so it is unlikely that there will ever be breaking changes.
-Nonetheless, when/if the Buffer API changes in node, this module's API will change
-accordingly.
-
-## related packages
-
-- [`buffer-reverse`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/buffer-reverse) - Reverse a buffer
-- [`buffer-xor`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/buffer-xor) - Bitwise xor a buffer
-- [`is-buffer`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/is-buffer) - Determine if an object is a Buffer without including the whole `Buffer` package
-
-## conversion packages
-
-### convert typed array to buffer
-
-Use [`typedarray-to-buffer`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/typedarray-to-buffer) to convert any kind of typed array to a `Buffer`. Does not perform a copy, so it's super fast.
-
-### convert buffer to typed array
-
-`Buffer` is a subclass of `Uint8Array` (which is a typed array). So there is no need to explicitly convert to typed array. Just use the buffer as a `Uint8Array`.
-
-### convert blob to buffer
-
-Use [`blob-to-buffer`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/blob-to-buffer) to convert a `Blob` to a `Buffer`.
-
-### convert buffer to blob
-
-To convert a `Buffer` to a `Blob`, use the `Blob` constructor:
-
-```js
-var blob = new Blob([ buffer ])
-```
-
-Optionally, specify a mimetype:
-
-```js
-var blob = new Blob([ buffer ], { type: 'text/html' })
-```
-
-### convert arraybuffer to buffer
-
-To convert an `ArrayBuffer` to a `Buffer`, use the `Buffer.from` function. Does not perform a copy, so it's super fast.
-
-```js
-var buffer = Buffer.from(arrayBuffer)
-```
-
-### convert buffer to arraybuffer
-
-To convert a `Buffer` to an `ArrayBuffer`, use the `.buffer` property (which is present on all `Uint8Array` objects):
-
-```js
-var arrayBuffer = buffer.buffer.slice(
-  buffer.byteOffset, buffer.byteOffset + buffer.byteLength
-)
-```
-
-Alternatively, use the [`to-arraybuffer`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/to-arraybuffer) module.
-
-## performance
-
-See perf tests in `/perf`.
-
-`BrowserBuffer` is the browser `buffer` module (this repo). `Uint8Array` is included as a
-sanity check (since `BrowserBuffer` uses `Uint8Array` under the hood, `Uint8Array` will
-always be at least a bit faster). Finally, `NodeBuffer` is the node.js buffer module,
-which is included to compare against.
-
-NOTE: Performance has improved since these benchmarks were taken. PR welcome to update the README.

-## Testing the project
-
-First, install the project:
-
-    npm install
-
-Then, to run tests in Node.js, run:
-
-    npm run test-node
-
-To test locally in a browser, you can run:
-
-    npm run test-browser-es5-local # For ES5 browsers that don't support ES6
-    npm run test-browser-es6-local # For ES6 compliant browsers
-
-This will print out a URL that you can then open in a browser to run the tests, using [airtap](https://www.npmjs.com/package/airtap).
-
-To run automated browser tests using Saucelabs, ensure that your `SAUCE_USERNAME` and `SAUCE_ACCESS_KEY` environment variables are set, then run:
-
-    npm test
-
-This is what's run in Travis, to check against various browsers. The list of browsers is kept in the `bin/airtap-es5.yml` and `bin/airtap-es6.yml` files.

+#### The buffer module from [node.js](https://nodejs.org/), for the browser.

+
+With [browserify](http://browserify.org), simply `require('buffer')` or use the `Buffer` global and you will get this module.
+
+The goal is to provide an API that is 100% identical to
+[node's Buffer API](https://nodejs.org/api/buffer.html). Read the
+[official docs](https://nodejs.org/api/buffer.html) for the full list of properties,
+instance methods, and class methods that are supported.
+
+## features
+
+- Manipulate binary data like a boss, in all browsers!
+- Super fast. Backed by Typed Arrays (`Uint8Array`/`ArrayBuffer`, not `Object`)
+- Extremely small bundle size (**6.75KB minified + gzipped**, 51.9KB with comments)
+- Excellent browser support (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari 9+, IE 11, iOS 9+, Android, etc.)
+- Preserves Node API exactly, with one minor difference (see below)
+- Square-bracket `buf[4]` notation works!
+- Does not modify any browser prototypes or put anything on `window`
+- Comprehensive test suite (including all buffer tests from node.js core)
+
+## install
+
+To use this module directly (without browserify), install it:
+
+```bash
+npm install buffer
+```
+
+This module was previously called **native-buffer-browserify**, but please use **buffer**
+from now on.
+
+If you do not use a bundler, you can use the [standalone script](https://bundle.run/buffer).
+
+## usage
+
+The module's API is identical to node's `Buffer` API. Read the
+[official docs](https://nodejs.org/api/buffer.html) for the full list of properties,
+instance methods, and class methods that are supported.
+
+As mentioned above, `require('buffer')` or use the `Buffer` global with
+[browserify](http://browserify.org) and this module will automatically be included
+in your bundle. Almost any npm module will work in the browser, even if it assumes that
+the node `Buffer` API will be available.
+
+To depend on this module explicitly (without browserify), require it like this:
+
+```js
+var Buffer = require('buffer/').Buffer  // note: the trailing slash is important!
+```
+
+To require this module explicitly, use `require('buffer/')` which tells the node.js module
+lookup algorithm (also used by browserify) to use the **npm module** named `buffer`
+instead of the **node.js core** module named `buffer`!
+
+
+## how does it work?
+
+The Buffer constructor returns instances of `Uint8Array` that have their prototype
+changed to `Buffer.prototype`. Furthermore, `Buffer` is a subclass of `Uint8Array`,
+so the returned instances will have all the node `Buffer` methods and the
+`Uint8Array` methods. Square bracket notation works as expected -- it returns a
+single octet.
+
+The `Uint8Array` prototype remains unmodified.
+
+
+## tracking the latest node api
+
+This module tracks the Buffer API in the latest (unstable) version of node.js. The Buffer
+API is considered **stable** in the
+[node stability index](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest/api/documentation.html#documentation_stability_index),
+so it is unlikely that there will ever be breaking changes.
+Nonetheless, when/if the Buffer API changes in node, this module's API will change
+accordingly.
+
+## related packages
+
+- [`buffer-reverse`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/buffer-reverse) - Reverse a buffer
+- [`buffer-xor`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/buffer-xor) - Bitwise xor a buffer
+- [`is-buffer`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/is-buffer) - Determine if an object is a Buffer without including the whole `Buffer` package
+
+## conversion packages
+
+### convert typed array to buffer
+
+Use [`typedarray-to-buffer`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/typedarray-to-buffer) to convert any kind of typed array to a `Buffer`. Does not perform a copy, so it's super fast.
+
+### convert buffer to typed array
+
+`Buffer` is a subclass of `Uint8Array` (which is a typed array). So there is no need to explicitly convert to typed array. Just use the buffer as a `Uint8Array`.
+
+### convert blob to buffer
+
+Use [`blob-to-buffer`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/blob-to-buffer) to convert a `Blob` to a `Buffer`.
+
+### convert buffer to blob
+
+To convert a `Buffer` to a `Blob`, use the `Blob` constructor:
+
+```js
+var blob = new Blob([ buffer ])
+```
+
+Optionally, specify a mimetype:
+
+```js
+var blob = new Blob([ buffer ], { type: 'text/html' })
+```
+
+### convert arraybuffer to buffer
+
+To convert an `ArrayBuffer` to a `Buffer`, use the `Buffer.from` function. Does not perform a copy, so it's super fast.
+
+```js
+var buffer = Buffer.from(arrayBuffer)
+```
+
+### convert buffer to arraybuffer
+
+To convert a `Buffer` to an `ArrayBuffer`, use the `.buffer` property (which is present on all `Uint8Array` objects):
+
+```js
+var arrayBuffer = buffer.buffer.slice(
+  buffer.byteOffset, buffer.byteOffset + buffer.byteLength
+)
+```
+
+Alternatively, use the [`to-arraybuffer`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/to-arraybuffer) module.
+
+## performance
+
+See perf tests in `/perf`.
+
+`BrowserBuffer` is the browser `buffer` module (this repo). `Uint8Array` is included as a
+sanity check (since `BrowserBuffer` uses `Uint8Array` under the hood, `Uint8Array` will
+always be at least a bit faster). Finally, `NodeBuffer` is the node.js buffer module,
+which is included to compare against.
+
+NOTE: Performance has improved since these benchmarks were taken. PR welcome to update the README.

+## Testing the project
+
+First, install the project:
+
+    npm install
+
+Then, to run tests in Node.js, run:
+
+    npm run test-node
+
+To test locally in a browser, you can run:
+
+    npm run test-browser-es5-local # For ES5 browsers that don't support ES6
+    npm run test-browser-es6-local # For ES6 compliant browsers
+
+This will print out a URL that you can then open in a browser to run the tests, using [airtap](https://www.npmjs.com/package/airtap).
+
+To run automated browser tests using Saucelabs, ensure that your `SAUCE_USERNAME` and `SAUCE_ACCESS_KEY` environment variables are set, then run:
+
+    npm test
+
+This is what's run in Travis, to check against various browsers. The list of browsers is kept in the `bin/airtap-es5.yml` and `bin/airtap-es6.yml` files.
