Welcome
========================================
Botan is a crypto library for C++ released under the permissive
:doc:`BSD-2 license <license>`.
It provides useful things like SSL/TLS, X.509 certificates, ECDSA,
AES, GCM, and bcrypt, plus a :doc:`kitchen sink <algos>` of crypto
algorithms of various utility. A third party open source
implementation of `SSHv2 <http://www.netsieben.com/products/ssh/>`_
that uses botan is also available. In addition to C++ you can use
(parts of) botan from Python or Perl (both included in tree), or with
`Node.js <https://github.com/justinfreitag/node-botan>`_.
See the :doc:`faq` for a list of common questions and answers,
:doc:`download` for information about getting the latest release,
and :doc:`manual` for the documentation.
If you need help or have questions, send a mail to the `development
mailing list
<http://lists.randombit.net/mailman/listinfo/botan-devel/>`_.
Patches, "philosophical" bug reports, announcements of programs using
the library, and related topics are also welcome. If you find what you
believe to be a bug, please file a ticket in `Bugzilla
<http://bugs.randombit.net/>`_.
