描述

I like the idea of this library, and I tried using it for a toy app; the challenge I have is that it would be extremely natural to use createId in class constructors, but these cannot be async and using createId(..).then(...) results in type warnings since the result cannot be definitively assigned.

I see you are building the key functionality on top of crypto.subtle and I imagine its not easy to find a work-around. Also, usually I am happy to use async APIs, but in this case its challenging.

研究方向: Investigate the current implementation of createId in the repository (likely in src/index.ts or similar). The issue requests a synchronous version because async cannot be used in constructors. Research alternatives to crypto.subtle that are synchronous, such as crypto.getRandomValues in browsers and Node.js crypto.randomBytes (synchronous version). Determine if a sync wrapper can be added without breaking existing async API. Check if there are any comments from maintainers in the issue discussion that provide hints.
