    > The main advantage is that cross-compilation to many targets is supported out of the box

    For the readers who aren't familiar:

    The code for running test and then cross-compiling (on one machine and OS) for different target platforms is:

    https://github.com/jedisct1/libaegis/blob/main/.github/workf...

    and the only zig file in the repo which drives the build process is:

  • Libsodium: A modern, portable, easy to use crypto library
    9 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 14 Sep 2023
    Libsodium has been around for a while, so probably the reason it was posted is that version 1.0.19 was just released: https://github.com/jedisct1/libsodium/releases/tag/1.0.19-RE...

    Updated NuGet and Swift packages are going to be uploaded soon.

    AEGIS-128X and 256X are not there yet, but if you need them, they are available in libaegis: https://github.com/jedisct1/libaegis

    All the code from libaegis will eventually be merged into libsodium, including the incremental update API which is especially useful for TLS.
