pkijs
DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT
PKIjs designed to be a helper for everyone making any PKI-related applications. Currently PKI defined by a set of documents, and usually these documents have form in RFC (Requst For Comments) managed by IETF. PKIjs respects this situation and provide to user a flexible environment based on existing set of RFCs, related to PKI.

PKI.js made of many specialized classes, each of them is responsible for handling one structure from specific RFC. For example, in order to handle X.509 certificate, described in RFC5280, PKI.js has class "Certificate". Each class inside PKI.js is inside separate file. Name of each class equals to name from RFC document. Here is a table with PKI.js class names and related RFCs:

PKI.js library could be extended very easily to handle additional types from any RFC. If you have a special need for any RFC's new types please create issue on GitHub.
