* **Commits** are signed with PGP keys, to prevent forgery. Make sure to verify commit signatures.
* **Releases** are transparent and built on GitHub CI. Make sure to verify [provenance](https://docs.npmjs.com/generating-provenance-statements) logs
* **Rare releasing** is followed to ensure less re-audit need for end-users
* **Dependencies** are minimal:
- All deps are prevented from automatic updates and have locked-down version ranges. Every update is checked with `npm-diff`
- Updates themselves are rare, to ensure rogue updates are not catched accidentally
* **Dependencies** are minimized and locked-down:
- If your app has 500 dependencies, any dep could get hacked and you'll be downloading
malware with every install. We make sure to use as few dependencies as possible
- We prevent automatic dependency updates by locking-down version ranges. Every update is checked with `npm-diff`
* **Dev Dependencies** are only used if you want to contribute to the repo. They are disabled for end-users:
- scure-base, scure-bip32, scure-bip39, micro-bmark and micro-should are developed by the same author and follow identical security practices
- prettier (linter), fast-check (property-based testing) and typescript are used for code quality, vector generation and ts compilation. The packages are big, which makes it hard to audit their source code thoroughly and fully

Our goal is to minimize the amount of 3rd-party dependencies & native bindings.
If your app uses 500 dependencies, any dep could get hacked and you'll be
downloading malware with every install.
