Description: 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.
