I've written quite a bit of security/cryptography-related code over the past 1.5 years. Sharing two packages that I think will be relevant to this community (+ would love any feedback!): https://github.com/privy-io/shamir-secret-sharing (3rd party audited) https://github.com/benjreinhart/secure-password-utilities

Are there any standards around SSS similar to psafe3 for password managers? I'm doing some research into implementing SSS in a customer friendly way.

Not that I am aware of. There is a lot of literature on SSS, but I don't actually know how often it's used in real-world apps (particularly in non-crypto).

I think Argent uses a form of it. I want to productize it.

Maybe I misunderstood you. The library I posted above is production-ready as it has undergone a independent third party audit (which you can find here: https://cure53.de/audit-report_privy-sss-library.pdf). privy.io uses this in production for its embedded wallets feature.

Ah okay awesome! That's what I was looking for. I need to look into how they are using it.

What are you trying to do with it? I'm not sure there is much public documentation about how it's used (as that's largely an implementation detail of a larger feature), but I may be able to help as I am the primary author of both the library and Privy's embedded wallets :)
