Simpler OAuth1.0
A back-to-basics approach to OAuth1.0 signature and string generation
Why?
A few months ago I struggled to find a typed library for OAuth1.0 authentication. Eventually I just used decided to use simple-oauth-js. However, that library was written to be used in the browser. When I needed a pure-node library for OAuth1.0... I decided to cut my search short and just rewrite it for typescript, simplifying it as much as I could.
