As I'm seeing more projects release "hand-rolled" encryption and key operations. I know I need to step up noscrypt advertising.
If you're building an application (client, server, desktop, etc) that targets x86_64 I maintain a library that will do your nip44 encryption and basic key operations for you :)
It's called noscrypt
- Noscrypt gives you consistent abstractions for nostr encryption algorithms.
- Your choice of highly tested backend libraries such as mbedTLS, openSSL or BCrypt API on Windows
- Advanced validation and error feedback
- Low level API gives you full control over memory
- Low level API will never take control of your process with allocations, aborts, forks, or threading
- It has automatic fallbacks for options and platform limitations (relies on monocypher for some fallbacks)
- Offers a static or shared library
- Includes versioned and hand verified copies of dependencies so you don't need internet access to build once you have the package
- CI tested on Windows and Linux x86_64 platforms. (more tests coming soon)
- Doesn't rely solely on GitHub or public infra
It also includes a C# library for .net devs :) More bindings may be coming soon.

Discussion
Awesome thank you! Only thing I will suggest, and it's up to you, is that I do usually redirect others to my website directly, incase I ever get taking down from github. I also don't allow PRs or issues on GitHub. But I know most devs like the GitHub link.
Take a look at these Nostr libraries we’ve been building, both use Noscrypt under the hood.
