Crypto Testing

Experimentation and research in cryptography.

Contains a number of experimental utilities for building cryptographic primitives and a few experimental implementations.

It is hoped that some of the items here will be useful for other people who are also studying cryptography in a JavaScript context.

In particular the implementations, computation algorithms and tests could be useful to help improve understanding.

Installation

npm install @andybry/crypto-testing

shared/big-int: working with and converting to and from big ints
