Paket: golang-filippo-edwards25519-dev (1.0.0~rc1+git20210721-0.1)

Low-level, Ed25519 elliptic curve library

This library implements the edwards25519 elliptic curve, exposing the necessary APIs to build a wide array of higher-level primitives. Read the docs at pkg.go.dev/filippo.io/edwards25519 (https://pkg.go.dev/filippo.io/edwards25519).

The code is originally derived from Adam Langley's internal implementation in the Go standard library, and includes George Tankersley's performance improvements (https://golang.org/cl/71950). It was then further developed by Henry de Valence for use in ristretto255.

Most users don't need this package, and should instead use crypto/ed25519 for signatures, golang.org/x/crypto/curve25519 for Diffie-Hellman, or github.com/gtank/ristretto255 for prime order group logic. However, for anyone currently using a fork of crypto/ed25519/internal/edwards25519 or github.com/agl/edwards25519, this package should be a safer, faster, and more powerful alternative.

Since this package is meant to curb proliferation of edwards25519 implementations in the Go ecosystem, it welcomes requests for new APIs or reviewable performance improvements.
