You can see from the original EIP that the keccak library is trusted by the Eth core devs and is a secure package: https://github.com/ethereum/EIPs/blob/master/EIPS/eip-55.md

Test the size diff yourself

// belongs in the parent directory to "ethereum-checksum-address"
import { getPackageStats } from "package-build-stats";
import path from "path";

(async () => {
  const results = await getPackageStats(
    path.join(__dirname, "ethereum-checksum-address"),
    {}
  );
  console.log({ results });
})();

Hey @dawsbot! The PR looks good!

Merging 👍

Btw I'm the author of the package keccak256 which is just a simple wrapper over keccak that also includes a cli, which is the reason for larger size

[dawsbot]

Ooh, @miguelmota that makes sense! I like CLI's too, perhaps you could split them up the way sindresorhus does?

The cli imports the non-cli, so you'll never need meow in the js package 🙌
