libsodium-uwp

libsodium-uwp (libsodium for Universal Windows Platform (UWP)) is a C++ Windows Runtime Component for UWP applications. This library is fully tested and executes on both Windows 10 and Windows 10 mobile.

Cryptography is hard. This library was written to make libsodium available to the .NET community building Universal Windows Applications so that developers can safely and securely implement cryptography within their application.

Notes

libsodium requires the Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015.

This library is currently a work in progress. While many libsodium functions are implemented, not are all. See the docs folder for more information. Also see the releases page for more information and details as to what is available on Nuget, as the master branch may be ahead of what is available there.
