# Steel Crypt 3.0 (BETA)
A comprehensive library of high-level, cryptographic API's, either manually defined or pulled from PointyCastle.
This library currently supports hashing, symmetric two-way encryption, and key/IV generation. It also has
a CLI, for conducting basic cryptography operations.
This library is a high-level wrapper over https://github.com/bcgit/pc-dart. It used to contain a fork of PointyCastle
within it, but since the package came under the ownership of the BouncyCastle organization, the additions to the fork
have been added upstream.
---
It takes time, effort, and mental power to keep this package updated, useful, and
improving. If you used or are using the package, I'd appreciate it if you could spare a few
dollars to help me continue development.

## Null Safety
This library has been fully ported to null safety. The version 3.0.0 is identical functionally to 2.3.1+6, except for
this porting process. There may be some slight variance in the interface, due to parameters becoming required where
they were formerly "optional" named parameters.
---
## Note: Documentation
These docs have not been fully written yet! Steel Crypt 3.X comes with major changes, and will have a static
website on GitHub Pages for documentation. For now, you can take a look at the API reference for more
information on the beta's classes. Each class has fairly extensive documentation.

## Note: RSA Deprecation
As I looked at the package landscape on pub.dev, it became clear to me that packages have become oversaturated, causing
difficult decisions for independent developers. I fear contributing to this issue.
Additionally, I haven't studied asymmetric encryption; I don't feel comfortable working with it and don't think this
package is adding much to the ecosystem as far as asymmetric encryption goes.
As of today, I will be deprecating RSA functionality in steel_crypt. It is clear to me that there are better packages
for asymmetric encryption; I highly encourage affected users to check out https://pub.dev/packages/crypton. The dev there
actively works on supporting asymmetric operations, more than I ever could, and has a deeper scope of features than this
package would have ever had.
