The pure Rust password hashing library that runs on Argon2.
From examples/helloworld:
```rust extern crate argon2rs;
pub fn main() { let (password, salt) = ("argon2i!", "delicious salt"); println!("argon2i(\"argon2i\", \"delicious\"):"); for byte in argon2rs::simple2i(&password, &salt).iter() { print!("{:02x}", byte); } println!(""); } ```
outputs:
argon2i("argon2i", "delicious"):

There are two variants of Argon2 that differ in the manner by which reference indices are computed during block-filling rounds. Argon2d does this in a faster but data-dependent fashion that could be vulnerable to side-channel attacks [1], whereas Argon2i ("i" denoting independence from plaintext input) works slower but is immune to such attacks and is therefore the preferred choice for password hashing.
