cryptokit
A comprehensive OCaml library providing cryptographic primitives like ciphers, hashes, and public-key cryptography for security-sensitive applications.
What is cryptokit?
Cryptokit is an OCaml library that provides a comprehensive set of cryptographic primitives, including ciphers, hash functions, public-key cryptography, and random number generation. It solves the need for implementing secure cryptographic protocols in OCaml applications, offering both modern and legacy algorithms in a modular framework.
OCaml developers building security-sensitive applications, such as secure communication tools, authentication systems, or data protection utilities, who need reliable cryptographic primitives.
Developers choose Cryptokit for its extensive, well-documented primitives, composable design that allows custom cryptographic pipelines, and integration with OCaml's ecosystem via Dune and Zarith.
