This PR refines previous efforts by adding:
require("buffer").Buffer
:To be clear: Per the Node docs, explicitly importing
Buffer
is rarely needed, given its availability in the global scope, but correct. It happens to be a viable option in environments where "magic" support for Node globals is either undesirable or broken (the latter is currently the case for ES modules in Webpack).
