The difference is that it has been rewritten from Typescript and converted to use node-forge instead of window.crypto.subtle. Why did you do this? Since the client provides services without SSL in http, window.crypto.subtle cannot be used.

In September last year, Nvidia announced that it would acquire Arm from SoftBank at a price of 40 billion U.S. dollars to strengthen its shortcomings in CPU, and formally enter the cloud data center by means of CPU+GPU. In October, Intel announced that it would increase its NAND business to 90%. Sold to SK Hynix at a price of 100 million US dollars; in the same month, AMD acquired the FPGA industry giant Xilinx, which also pointed to the cloud data center; and this complicated situation became even more confusing after the release of the first generation of Shenxin Apple M1.

Not only that, Intel recently announced that it will change coaches in a month. The current head Bob Swan was previously Intel’s financial officer and lacks a professional background in technology. Perhaps it is precisely because of this deficiency that Intel has developed many problems at the technical level, and it has been unable to break through the 14nm process, which has also brought about a "firewire change of command" situation.
