 A post-quantum secure networking protocol that makes developing hyper-secure client-server and P2P applications easy. Built with 100% safe Rust, it provides a robust foundation for creating secure, high-performance network applications with built-in NAT traversal and post-quantum cryptography using a very low memory footprint.
