If you program in Typescript, I adapted the Mersenne Twister implementation that was brought in Christoph Henkelmann's answer to this thread as a typescript class:
/**

export class Random {

/* constant vector a */

/* most significant w-r bits */
static LOWER_MASK = 0x7fffffff;
/* least significant r bits */
mt = new Array(Random.N);
/* the array for the state vector */
mti = Random.N + 1;
/* mti==N+1 means mt[N] is not initialized */
constructor(seed:number = null) {
if (seed == null) {
seed = new Date().getTime();
}
this.init_genrand(seed);
}
private init_genrand(s:number) {
this.mt[0] = s >>> 0;

/* See Knuth TAOCP Vol2. 3rd Ed. P.106 for multiplier. */

you can than use it as follows:
var random = new Random(132);
random.nextInt32(); //return a pseudo random int32 number
random.nextInt32([10,20]); //return a pseudo random int in range [10,20]
random.nextNumber(); //return a a pseudo random number in range [0,1]
