Reproduce the failure from the linked torus-bufer repository with npm i, npm run build, and npm run preview. Start by reading svelte.config.js and compare the static preview with npm run dev; done means the browser build runs without the Buffer is not defined error.

Description

I need a way to alias Buffer for the browser.

Not sure which module requires this but its probably crypto related.

Buffer is not defined

Problem is using Torus node library.

Here is a repo: https://github.com/ralyodio/torus-bufer

npm i
npm run build
npm run preview

...you will see error. npm run dev works fine since node handles requests. Its the browser only environment that is the issue.

The polyfill in svelte.config.js appears to not work: https://github.com/ralyodio/torus-bufer/blob/master/svelte.config.js
