Description
I understand that this library as a whole did not go through the full security audit, but what about parts of it, namely address generation - is that part anywhere close to being production ready or is it highly experimental as well?
I am only using:
- createVault
- generateRandomSeed
- keyFromPassword
- generateNewAddress
to generate addresses for users and now that I am getting closer to production I am wondering if I can roll out with this code or should I look for other libraries.
Unfortunately I am not able to assess by myself the quality of above functions implementations as they are a bit too technical for me.

Research direction
Review the listed entry points—createVault, generateRandomSeed, keyFromPassword, and generateNewAddress—and determine whether the repository documents their security status or audit coverage. Done means providing a clear, evidence-based production-readiness assessment or documenting the remaining uncertainty; no specific files or tests are identified in the issue.
