+# buf-compare
+
+[`buf-compare`](https://github.com/sindresorhus/buf-compare) recommends that you switch to native `Buffer.compare()` which has been available since Node.js v0.12.0
+
+# Alternatives
+
+## NodeJS
+
+```js
+import {Buffer} from 'node:buffer';
+
+const buf1 = Buffer.from('1234');
+const buf2 = Buffer.from('0123');
+const arr = [buf1, buf2];
+
+console.log(arr.sort(Buffer.compare));
+// Prints: [ <Buffer 30 31 32 33>, <Buffer 31 32 33 34> ]
+// (This result is equal to: [buf2, buf1].)
+```
