							|  |  |  | ============ | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | 
 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | Sodium is a new, easy-to-use software library for encryption, | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | decryption, signatures, password hashing and more. | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | 
 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | It is a portable, cross-compilable, installable, packageable | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | fork of [NaCl](http://nacl.cr.yp.to/), with a compatible API, and an | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | extended API to improve usability even further. | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | 
 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | Its goal is to provide all of the core operations needed to build | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | higher-level cryptographic tools. | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | 
 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | Sodium supports a variety of compilers and operating systems, | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | including Windows (with MingW or Visual Studio, x86 and x64), iOS, Android, | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | as well as Javascript and Webassembly. |

							|  |  |  | ## Integrity Checking
 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | 
 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | The integrity checking instructions (including the signing key for libsodium) | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | are available in the [installation](https://download.libsodium.org/doc/installation#integrity-checking) | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | section of the documentation. |
