nicoadresse/hjlix

How nicoadresse/hjlix works

hjlix is a Rust command-line cryptography utility. Users select a command and algorithm through the CLI, provide strings or file paths, and receive hashes, encrypted/decrypted text, or Base64 results on stdout; some commands also support file output. The main workflow is CLI dispatch into distinct SHA-2, SHA-3/Keccak, AES-GCM, or Base64 implementations. AES-GCM additionally supports key generation and key-file-based decryption. The source index documents routing to several implementations whose bodies were not sampled, so those links reflect dispatch evidence rather than inspection of their internals.
