It was then further developed by Henry de Valence for use in ristretto255, and was finally [merged back into the Go standard library](https://golang.org/cl/276272) as of Go 1.17. It now tracks the upstream codebase and extends it with additional functionality. + +Most users don't need this package, and should instead use `crypto/ed25519` for signatures, `golang.org/x/crypto/curve25519` for Diffie-Hellman, or `github.com/gtank/ristretto255` for prime order group logic. However, for anyone currently using a fork of `crypto/internal/edwards25519`/`crypto/ed25519/internal/edwards25519` or `github.com/agl/edwards25519`, this package should be a safer, faster, and more powerful alternative. + +Since this package is meant to curb proliferation of edwards25519 implementations in the Go ecosystem, it welcomes requests for new APIs or reviewable performance improvements. -- cgit 1.4.1
