# [RustCrypto]: Hybrid Const Generic / Typenum Arrays

Hybrid array type combining const generics with the expressiveness of
[`typenum`]-based constraints, providing an alternative to [`generic-array`]
and a incremental transition path to const generics.
## About
This crate uses `typenum` to enable the following features which aren't yet
possible with the stable implementation of const generics:
- [#60551: Associated constants in traits can not be used in const generics][rust-issue-60551]
- [#76560: Complex generic constants: `feature(generic_const_exprs)`][rust-issue-76560]
Internally the crate is built on const generics and provides traits which make
it possible to convert between const generic types and `typenum` types.
## Minimum Supported Rust Version (MSRV) Policy
MSRV increases are not considered breaking changes and can happen in patch
releases.
The crate MSRV accounts for all supported targets and crate feature
combinations, excluding explicitly unstable features.
