## SUMMARY
This gem is a C-extension for using BLAKE2b in Ruby. BLAKE2b (or just BLAKE2) is optimized for 64-bit platforms—including NEON-enabled ARMs—and produces digests of any size between 1 and 64 bytes.
This gem is a C-extension to enable using BLAKE2b in Ruby. This BLAKE2b implementation (or just BLAKE2) is optimized for 64-bit platforms with SSE support (excluding NEON-enabled ARMs). It produces digests of any size between 1 and 64 bytes.
The C code for this gem is taken from the [official reference C implementation](https://github.com/BLAKE2/BLAKE2) as of commit [ca4c89314abff54e3806b44e4a08164f8204f09a](https://github.com/BLAKE2/BLAKE2/tree/ca4c89314abff54e3806b44e4a08164f8204f09a).
