I had to do a little digging into where it was pulling its crypto methods from and it looks like the have a bit of their own library, but it uses libsodium via javascript wrappers underneath: https://github.com/TankerHQ/sdk-js/tree/master/packages/cryp... https://github.com/jedisct1/libsodium.js So, I guess take that as you will. I haven't read much of the actual source yet. edit: I sort of expected there would be a move to the server since it looks like they built their library to run on the server, even if it's running all of the libsodium methods in javascript but it's definitely pulling the browser version and running it all in the client: https://github.com/TankerHQ/sdk-js/blob/master/packages/file...

Hi Tayuka, Congratulations on the launch! Great to see end-to-end encryption made the cut. It seems hard to put the burden on users never to lose their login password though — they lose all their data when they do. Have you looked at the Tanker SDK? It’s an open-source, cross-platform SDK for end-to-end encryption (with a zero-knowledge key distribution service), that’s very user friendly when it comes to recovery.
