// Use of this source code is governed by a BSD-style

// Package x509 parses X.509-encoded keys and certificates.
// Package x509 implements a subset of the X.509 standard.
//
// It allows parsing and generating certificates, certificate signing
// requests, certificate revocation lists, and encoded public and private keys.
// It provides a certificate verifier, complete with a chain builder.
//
// The package targets the X.509 technical profile defined by the IETF (RFC
// 2459/3280/5280), and as further restricted by the CA/Browser Forum Baseline
// Requirements. There is minimal support for features outside of these
// profiles, as the primary goal of the package is to provide compatibility
// with the publicly trusted TLS certificate ecosystem and its policies and
// constraints.
//
// On macOS and Windows, certificate verification is handled by system APIs, but
// the package aims to apply consistent validation rules across operating
// systems.
