+## About
+
+The goal of this plugin is to provide a fast and powerful cryptographic functions by calling native libraries. On Android, it uses [javax.cypto](https://developer.android.com/reference/javax/crypto/package-summary), and on iOS, it uses [CommonCrypto](https://opensource.apple.com/source/CommonCrypto/) and [CryptoKit](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/cryptokit/)
+
+I started this projet because I wanted to add cryptographic functions on a Flutter app. But I faced a problem with the well-known [Pointy Castle](https://pub.dev/packages/pointycastle) library: the performance was very poor. Here some benchmarks and comparison:
+
+![](resources/benchmarks.png)
+
+For comparison, on a *iPhone 13*, you can encrypt/decrypt a message of **2MiB** in **~5.6s** with PointyCastle and in **~40ms** with NativeCrypto. And on an *OnePlus 5*, you can encrypt/decrypt a message of **50MiB** in **~6min30** with PointyCastle and in less than **~1s** with NativeCrypto.
+
+In short, NativeCrypto is incomparable with PointyCastle.
+
+## Usage
+
+First, check compatibility with your targets.

+
+#### Hash
+
+To digest a message, you can use the following function:
+
+```dart
+Uint8List hash = await HashAlgorithm.sha256.digest(message);
+```
+
+Note that you can find a `toBytes()` method in the example app, to convert a `String` to a `Uint8List`.
+
+> In NativeCrypto, you can use the following hash functions: SHA-256, SHA-384, SHA-512
+
+#### Keys
+
+You can build a `SecretKey` from a utf8, base64, base16 (hex) strings or raw bytes. You can also generate a SecretKey from secure random.
+
+```dart
+SecretKey secretKey = SecretKey(Uint8List.fromList([0x73, 0x65, 0x63, 0x72, 0x65, 0x74]));
+SecretKey secretKey = SecretKey.fromUtf8('secret');
+SecretKey secretKey = SecretKey.fromBase64('c2VjcmV0');
+SecretKey secretKey = SecretKey.fromBase16('63657274');
+SecretKey secretKey = await SecretKey.fromSecureRandom(256);
+```
+
+#### Key derivation
+
+You can derive a `SecretKey` using **PBKDF2**.
+
+First, you need to initialize a `Pbkdf2` object.
+
+```dart
+Pbkdf2 pbkdf2 = Pbkdf2(32, 1000, algorithm: HashAlgorithm.sha512);
+```
+
+Then, you can derive a `SecretKey` from a password and salt.
+
+```dart
+SecretKey secretKey = await pbkdf2.derive(password: password, salt: 'salt');
+```
+
+> In NativeCrypto, you can use the following key derivation function: PBKDF2
+
+#### Cipher
+
+And now, you can use the `SecretKey` to encrypt/decrypt a message.
+
+First, you need to initialize a `Cipher` object.
+
+```dart
+AES cipher = AES(secretKey, AESMode.gcm);
+```
+
+Then, you can encrypt/decrypt your message.
+
+```dart
+CipherText encrypted = await cipher.encrypt(message);
+Uint8List decrypted = await cipher.decrypt(encrypted);
+```
+
+After an encryption, you can use the `CipherText` object to access underlying data.
+
+```dart
+Uint8List iv = encrypted.iv;
+Uint8List data = encrypted.data;
+Uint8List tag = encrypted.tag;
+```
+
+Note that data and tag are costly to access, so you should only use them if you need to !
