V7 Release

[MaximusHaximus]

Description

V7 release

• Crypto refactor (Feature/lit 2382 js sdk refactor crypto and other wasm based modules #503) - shout out to @joshLong145 for killer work on this

  • 3 WASM modules were combined into a single module. This resulted in a significant reduction of bundle size; crypto is now under 400kb - approximately half the size of the previous implemention using 3 wasm modules.
  • WASM is loaded 'on-demand' the first time one of our crypto methods are called, instead of loading it when the module is loaded
  • Explicit 'loadModules' calling is no longer necessary; this has been removed from the API
  • We no longer mutate the global object with our crypto SDK instance
  • Crypto API methods are now async
  • WASM methods are now strongly typed!
