`pairing` is a crate for using pairing-friendly elliptic curves.
`pairing` provides basic traits for pairing-friendly elliptic curve constructions.
Specific curves are implemented in separate crates:
- [`bls12_381`](https://crates.io/crates/bls12_381) - the BLS12-381 curve.
## [Documentation](https://docs.rs/pairing/)
Bring the `pairing` crate into your project just as you normally would.
## Security Warnings
This library does not make any guarantees about constant-time operations, memory
access patterns, or resistance to side-channel attacks.
## Minimum Supported Rust Version
Requires Rust **1.56** or higher.
Minimum supported Rust version can be changed in the future, but it will be done with a
minor version bump.
