What's Contained In This Repo

This repo is a cargo workspace for the Rust implementation for the core of the Aranya platform. This is a library that includes the storage module (for DAG and FactDB), crypto module (with default crypto engine automatically selected), sync engine, and runtime client (including policy VM).

It also includes Aranya Fast Channels to enable encrypted channels between 2 peers allowing either unidirectional or bidirectional communication.

More documentation on Aranya is provided here: Aranya Documentation.
