- skion 12y agoFor one the fact that (the author of NaCL) Daniel Bernstein is backing it.
- arnehormann 12y agoI really doubt that, where does it say so? AFAIK, he supported the TweetNaCl in C. That does not mean anything concerning this port.
- dchest 12y agoDJB wrote the original tweetnacl.c, from which this JavaScript implementation is derived. He doesn't have anything to do with the port.
- skion 12y agoYou guys are right of course; I was looking at the C version.
- dchest 12y agoIt's a port of TweetNaCl (http://tweetnacl.cr.yp.to http://tweetnacl.cr.yp.to), which goal is to be tiny and auditable. If you compare C and JS implementations side-by-side, they look very similar (which was the major goal of this port).
