If you're looking for security and stability, I would personally avoid this.

I took a glance at the code and it's... not great. It's absolutely full of short, meaningless 1-2 letter variable and function names that make it very hard to read and understand if you're not the original author. Wouldn't be surprised if it's full of security holes that will never be found.

According to the author it was mostly written on the train with his phone, that could explain the terse naming.
