Viem support? about siwe HOT 12 OPEN

We are not planning to add support for viem but would welcome a contribution. As this library already supports both ethers.js v5 and v6 I believe the "crypto backend" is abstracted enough to make such addition relatively easily, unless I'm missing something.

I'd say that you are missing what we believe is very important.
Quite a lot of websites use Viem/Wagmi.
And quite a lot, like us, the only usage of ethers is from this package, leading to an unnecesary increase of package downloading from the users which leads to a worse user experience, specially on smartphones / contries with slow Internet connections.

I created a viem version here https://github.com/feelsgoodman-web3/siwveim

It would be awesome to have viem support or directly replace ethers.

Hello, we are discussing how to address this, since the library went through an audit it gets a little more complicated to replace such a vital library. Hope you understand!

@nfts2me Yes and no, there's also a deps problem (like parsers based on apg-js), See my Comparison above packages on viem ~2mb.

however siwe 2.8mb + parser 2.66 + ethers 18.8MB = ~23mb

hence the motivation to make https://github.com/reslear/simple-siwe a scaled-down copy without dependencies
