# The Cryb libraries
The Cryb libraries are a collection of cryptography- and
security-related function libraries written with the following goals
in mind:
* Comprehensive: Cryb aims to provide a rich and flexible set of
building blocks for cryptographic applications.
* Self-contained and easily embeddable: the Cryb libraries have no
external dependencies (apart from the toolchain) and few internal
ones. Individual modules and algorithms can easily be extracted
from Cryb and integrated into other codebases.
* Reliable: the libraries come with an extensive test suite with a
long-term goal of 100% test coverage.
* Stable: guaranteed API and ABI stability.
* Documented: full API documentation in the form of Unix man pages.
* Consistently and permissively licensed: the entire collection is
under the 3-clause BSD license.
## Caveat
We aren't there yet. The Cryb libraries are still undeniably at the
experimental stage. However, significant portions are already in
production use as components in other projects (cf: easily
embeddable), and we have great expectations for the future of Cryb.
