Instead of requiring consuming applications to use the Node.js
Buffer
API polyfill to convertUint8Array
byte arrays to and from base 64 strings, wallet clients will now use native JavaScript methodsatob

.Credit to PureStake, as utility functions for AlgoSigner were starting points for the functions now being used here: https://github.com/PureStake/algosigner/blob/master/packages/common/src/encoding.ts
Other Changes
I've also updated the core library's tsconfig to no longer enforce
noUncheckedIndexedAccess
, which forces me to use non-null assertion operators to access numbered array elements. This trade-off for the benefit it provides by strictly enforcing declared object properties doesn't seem worth it. I would've had to use it (again) in thebyteArrayToString
function. See https://www.typescriptlang.org/tsconfig#noUncheckedIndexedAccess
