 ## Highlights <!-- omit in toc -->
 
-- Simple TS API
-- Supports all modern JS/TS runtimes
-- Seedable based on entropy or user input
-- Plugin support for different pseudo random number generators (PRNGs)
+- Simple TS API with zero dependencies
+- **Seedable**
+- Plugin support for different pseudo random number generators
 - Includes many common distributions
   - uniform, normal, poisson, bernoulli, etc
-- Validates all user input
-- Integrates with [seedrandom](https://github.com/davidbau/seedrandom)
+- Replacement for `seedrandom` which hasn't been updated in over 5 years
+- Supports all modern JS/TS runtimes
 
 ## Install <!-- omit in toc -->
