Contributing to first stable release of mldsa-native
About the Organization
This project focuses on contributing to mldsa-native, a work-in-progress implementation of the ML-DSA post-quantum signature standard. The mentee will help advance mldsa-native towards its first stable release by working on various aspects of building a secure, fast, and portable implementation. Tasks may include implementing constant-time analysis tooling, expanding test coverage, improving build systems, enhancing documentation, developing benchmarking infrastructure, or contributing to CI/CD pipelines. The project offers flexibility to focus on areas matching the mentee's interests while contributing meaningfully to this post-quantum cryptography implementation and helping achieve production readiness.
