Apple has announced a new open-source 'Swift Crypto' package that brings the APIs of CryptoKit to the wider Swift community.

The package will let Swift developers access APIs for a common set of cryptographic operations regardless of the platform they deploy on.

This new library provides a cross-platform solution for using the CryptoKit APIs on all platforms that Swift supports. This means that on all platforms Swift supports you can now simply write the following to get all of the CryptoKit APIs: 'import Crypto'

On Apple platforms, Swift Crypto will defer directly to CryptoKit; however, on other platforms it will use a new implementation built on BoringSSL. This gives Swift users simple access to safe and easy to use cryptographic APIs on all platforms.
