 //Generates OTP
      const genOTP = generateOTP({
          length: 4,
          digits: true,
          letters: true,
          symbols: true,
          expiration: '3m', //OTP expires in 3 minutes
      })

if doesn't added any value to true it will make an error

 let charset = '';
  if (digits) charset += '0123456789';

  if (symbols) charset += '!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?';

  if (!charset) {
    throw new Error('At least one character type (digits, letters, symbols) must be selected.');
  }

and if also the length is less than 1 make an error

if (length <= 0) {
    throw new Error('OTP length must be greater than 0.');
