easyxrp v1.1.1
About
Generate Ripple XRP wallet address and private key.
Can be run as a standalone npx script, or used as an external library.
Since this uses Ripples official library, and is open-source, and you can run locally on your own device, risk of private key being compromised is minimized.
Wallet address will not be activated until a minimum amount of XRP is sent to it. At this time it is 1 XRP. Refer to the official documentation:
https://xrpl.org/docs/concepts/accounts/reserves
Running (standalone)
Requires NodeJS to be installed.

Usage as library (node module)
import { generateXRPwallet } from 'easyxrp';
generateXRPwallet() returns object:
{
seed: string;
walletAddress: string;
privateKey: string;
}Additional info
The ledger is public, so anyone with the wallet address, can lookup the balance and transactions, for instance here:
XRP can be sent to that address, but to send XRP out of that address the private key is required. Transactions are not reversible, never give away private keys.
