This doesn't seem to be doing downloading in a streaming manner, as indicated by its use of my old "file-saver"[1] library. Edit: Originally thought this also did encryption without streaming.

Nowadays I would recommend using Penumbra[2] (another library I've worked on) with StreamSaver.js for streaming file encryption/decryption/downloading.

The encryption/upload is streamed, but the download/decryption is not, we will work on that. Thanks for the link!
