### Browser
The recommended method of using `bitcoinjs-lib` in your browser is through [Browserify](https://github.com/substack/node-browserify).
If you're familiar with how to use browserify, ignore this and carry on, otherwise, it is recommended to read the tutorial at http://browserify.org/.

**NOTE**: We use Node Maintenance LTS features, if you need strict ES5, use [`--transform babelify`](https://github.com/babel/babelify) in conjunction with your `browserify` step (using an [`es2015`](http://babeljs.io/docs/plugins/preset-es2015/) preset).

**WARNING**: iOS devices have [problems](https://github.com/feross/buffer/issues/136), use atleast [buffer@5.0.5](https://github.com/feross/buffer/pull/155) or greater, and enforce the test suites (for `Buffer`, and any other dependency) pass before use.
