Description
Just wanted to let you know the content hasher works nicely in the browser with a small change to the packages being used:
```diff
- const crypto = require('crypto')
+ import { Buffer } from 'buffer/'
+ import crypto from 'crypto-browserify'
```
Packages:
```
npm install buffer
npm install crypto-browserify
```
That's all I had to change for my Webpack-based app.

Research direction
The issue does not name a repository file or test. Start by locating the content hasher's current crypto require and checking its package dependencies and Webpack browser build; verify the documented buffer and crypto-browserify setup works in a browser-based app. Done means the content hasher can be bundled and used in the browser without the reported change being applied manually.
