A simple, modern and secure encryption Swift library with small explicit keys, and no config options.

AgeKit: Swift implementation of age

age is a simple, modern and secure file encryption tool and format. It features small explicit keys, no config options, and UNIX-style composability.

AgeKit provides a Swift implementation of the library and format.

The reference Go implementation is available at filippo.io/age.

Implementation Notes

These features of age have been implemented:

• ✅ X25519 public/private keys
• ⚠️ Scrypt passphrases: this is implemented but there are issues with the format that have compatibility issues with the Go version of the tool
• ✅ Armored (PEM) encoding and decoding
• ❌ SSH keys
  • ❌ GitHub users

AgeKit uses features from CryptoKit and needs at least macOS 11 or iOS 14.
