Check out the DIDKit documentation here.

DIDKit provides Verifiable Credential and Decentralized Identifier functionality across different platforms. It was written primarily in Rust due to Rust's expressive type system, memory safety, simple dependency web, and suitability across different platforms including embedded systems. DIDKit embeds the ssi library, which contains the core functionality.

DIDKit has undergone the following security reviews:

• March 14th, 2022 - Trail of Bits | Summary of Findings

We are setting up a process to accept contributions. Please feel free to open issues or PRs in the interim, but we cannot merge external changes until this process is in place.

DIDKit is written in Rust. To get Rust, you can use Rustup.

Build DIDKit using Cargo:

$ cargo build

That will give you the DIDKit CLI executable located at target/debug/didkit. You can also build and install DIDKit's components separately. Building the FFI libraries will require additional dependencies. See the corresponding readmes linked below for more info.

DIDKit can be used in any of the following ways:

• CLI - didkit command-line program
• HTTP - HTTP server (Rust library and CLI program)
• FFI - libraries for C, Java, Android, and Dart/Flutter
