# Random Avatars
The only NPM library which uses the [Robohash](https://github.com/e1ven/Robohash) algorithm by [Colin Davis](https://github.com/e1ven) — so go to his GitHub page and show some love.
## What this actually does?
It basically takes a string and returns an avatar for it. In the backgrounf it works the same as Robohash, i.e., it copy/pastes various pictures together, using bits from the SHA hash. Consider this a JavaScript translation of the actual Python based Robohash library.
## Usage Documentation
Coming soon.

## Credits
