***Node-core string_decoder for userland***
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
This package is a mirror of the string_decoder implementation in Node-core.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Full documentation may be found on the [Node.js website](https://nodejs.org/dist/v8.9.4/docs/api/).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
As of version 1.0.0 **string_decoder** uses semantic versioning.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Previous versions
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Previous version numbers match the versions found in Node core, e.g. 0.10.24 matches Node 0.10.24, likewise 0.11.10 matches Node 0.11.10.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Update
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The *build/* directory contains a build script that will scrape the source from the [nodejs/node](https://github.com/nodejs/node) repo given a specific Node version.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Streams Working Group
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
`string_decoder` is maintained by the Streams Working Group, which
 | 
						|
oversees the development and maintenance of the Streams API within
 | 
						|
Node.js. The responsibilities of the Streams Working Group include:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
* Addressing stream issues on the Node.js issue tracker.
 | 
						|
* Authoring and editing stream documentation within the Node.js project.
 | 
						|
* Reviewing changes to stream subclasses within the Node.js project.
 | 
						|
* Redirecting changes to streams from the Node.js project to this
 | 
						|
  project.
 | 
						|
* Assisting in the implementation of stream providers within Node.js.
 | 
						|
* Recommending versions of `readable-stream` to be included in Node.js.
 | 
						|
* Messaging about the future of streams to give the community advance
 | 
						|
  notice of changes.
