nim-rng

Very basic wrapper over std/sysrand, you might be able to use this as a somewhat cryptographically-secure drop-in replacement for std/random

Install using nimble: nimble install rng or nimble install https://codeberg.org/onbox/rng Documentation can be found here

Warning: std/sysrand has not been audited, and so it is possible that it might not actually be cryptographically secure. But, it also just wraps over common platform-specific cryptographically-secure random number generators so the chance that this is unsafe is small but it is a real chance. Decide for yourself whether or not this is worth the risk, if it isn't then consider using wrappers to OpenSSL or some other well-established cryptography library that offers a CSPRNG.
