============

Sodium is a new, easy-to-use software library for encryption,
decryption, signatures, password hashing and more.

It is a portable, cross-compilable, installable, packageable
fork of [NaCl](http://nacl.cr.yp.to/), with a compatible API, and an
extended API to improve usability even further.

Its goal is to provide all of the core operations needed to build
higher-level cryptographic tools.

Sodium supports a variety of compilers and operating systems,
including Windows (with MingW or Visual Studio, x86 and x64), iOS, Android,
as well as Javascript and Webassembly.

## Documentation

The documentation is available on Gitbook and built from the
[libsodium-doc](https://github.com/jedisct1/libsodium-doc) repository:

* [libsodium documentation](https://doc.libsodium.org) - online, requires Javascript.

## Integrity Checking

The integrity checking instructions (including the signing key for libsodium)
are available in the [installation](https://download.libsodium.org/doc/installation#integrity-checking)
section of the documentation.

## Community

A mailing-list is available to discuss libsodium.

In order to join, just send a random mail to `sodium-subscribe` {at}
`pureftpd` {dot} `org`.

Use https when linking where possible. Only makes sense to use TLS when linking from a crypto-related library. Had to change the libsodium documentation link a bit because the original URL returns the gitbook.org certificate. cr.yp.to doesn't actually support encrypting HTTP with TLS so we leave it as-is. 2015-05-07 21:53:59 -07:00			`[ISC license](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISC_license).`
