# fcry - [f]ile[cry]pt
A file en-/decryption tool for easy use.
Currently `fcry` uses `ChaCha20Poly1305` ([RFC 8439](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc8439)) as [AEAD](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Authenticated_encryption) cipher provided by the [chacha20poly1305](https://docs.rs/chacha20poly1305/latest/chacha20poly1305/) crate.
## Status
Currently `fcry` is __not thoroughly tested__ and in __early stages of development__.
There is a chance, that something is broken as of now.
Encryption __seems__ to work, but due to a possible lack of understanding of some underlying methods
(or misinterpretation) it could theoretically be not effective at all.
