This package provides fast implementations of many [cryptographic hash functions](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptographic_hash_function) for use in Julia.

Its high-level interface is designed to match the one of Julia's standard library package [SHA](https://docs.julialang.org/en/v1/stdlib/SHA/).

In particular, it can effortlessly replace [SHA.jl](https://github.com/JuliaCrypto/SHA.jl) where performance is relevant.

## Algorithms

The supported hash functions and [extendable-output functions](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extendable-output_function) (XOF) include:

  - [SHA-1](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SHA-1)

  - [SHA-2 family](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SHA-2)

  - [SHA-3 family](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SHA-3)

  - [MD2](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MD2_(hash_function))

  - [MD4](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MD4)

  - [MD5](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MD5)

  - [RIPEMD-160](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RIPEMD)

  - [BLAKE2 family](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BLAKE_(hash_function)#BLAKE2)

  - [GOST family](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GOST_(hash_function))

  - [SM3](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SM3_(hash_function))

  - [STRIBOG family](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streebog)

  - [TIGER family](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiger_(hash_function))

  - [WHIRLPOOL](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whirlpool_(hash_function))
