## Nym Sphinx in WebAssembly
# Nym Sphinx webassembly client

## About
Produces layer-encrypted Sphinx packets for use with Nym mixnets.

This is an npm package which allows JavaScript programmers (or anyone else who can use WebAssembly in their applications) to produce layer-encrypted [Sphinx](http://www0.cs.ucl.ac.uk/staff/G.Danezis/papers/sphinx-eprint.pdf) packets for use with [Nym](https://nymtech.net/docs) mixnets. It's written in Rust and compiled to WebAssembly.

Sphinx packets are designed to ensure the privacy of information in transit, even when the adversary is able to monitor the network in its entirety. When used with a mixnet, both content (what you said) and metadata (who you said it to, when you said it) are protected.
[Sphinx](http://www0.cs.ucl.ac.uk/staff/G.Danezis/papers/sphinx-eprint.pdf) packets ensure the privacy of information in transit, even when the adversary is able to monitor the network in its entirety. When used with a mixnet, both content (what you said) and metadata (who you said it to, when you said it) are protected.

This helps browser-based and mobile applications get stronger privacy, in a way that wasn't previously possible.

This client is part of the [Nym](https://nymtech.net/docs) project. It's written in Rust and compiled to WebAssembly.

## Security Status

From a security point of view, this module is not yet complete. A key missing feature, cover traffic, will be implemented soon. You can build your applications, but don't rely on it for strong anonymity yet if your application needs cover traffic.
