Description
Hi, I am not sure that this is totally correct but, I was trying to make hypercore work on a device (termux) that did not have a prebuild version of sodium-native so I had the idea of copying the sodium-javascript (expept from package.json) after installing everything onto the sodium-native folder.
The results were that I could write a hypercore but I could not replicate it.
I don't know if that hack should have worked

Research direction
Start with the reported Termux setup and compare the sodium-native and sodium-javascript packages, noting that the issue only describes copying sodium-javascript into the sodium-native folder after installation. Reproduce the result by writing a hypercore and attempting replication; done means replication works with the intended sodium implementation or the incompatibility is clearly documented.
