How to salt and hash password in Node with crypto?

To salt and hash password in Node with crypto, we call the hashSync method.

For instance, we write

const bcrypt = require("bcrypt");
const salt = bcrypt.genSaltSync(10);
const hash = bcrypt.hashSync("B4c0//", salt);

to create a salt with genSaltSync.

Then we call hashSync with the string to create a hash for and the salt to create the hash.

We then compare the hash with

const isSame = bcrypt.compareSync("B4c0//", hash);

by calling compareSync with the unhashed string with the hash.
