The optional `byteOffset` and `length` arguments specify a memory range within the `arrayBuffer` that will be shared by the `Buffer`. ### bufferFrom(buffer) - `buffer` <Buffer> An existing `Buffer` to copy data from Copies the passed `buffer` data onto a new `Buffer` instance. ### bufferFrom(string[, encoding]) - `string` <String> A string to encode. - `encoding` <String> The encoding of `string`. **Default:** `'utf8'` Creates a new `Buffer` containing the given JavaScript string `string`. If provided, the `encoding` parameter identifies the character encoding of `string`. ## See also - [buffer-alloc](https://github.com/LinusU/buffer-alloc) A ponyfill for `Buffer.alloc` - [buffer-alloc-unsafe](https://github.com/LinusU/buffer-alloc-unsafe) A ponyfill for `Buffer.allocUnsafe`
