verite

This package contains the Verite Javascript SDK for requesting, issuing, consuming, and revoking Verifiable Credentials.

Note that this package was written with the intent of soliciting feedback, not with the intent of being published or used in a production environment. Extracting core logic to a package made logical sense for laying out the project, but primarily aided in more easily sharing common code between the demos and the demo-wallet.
