# rust-libindy-wrapper

[LibIndy](https://github.com/hyperledger/indy-sdk/tree/master/libindy) major artifact of the SDK is a C-callable library that provides the basic building blocks for the creation of applications on the top of Hyperledger Indy, which provides a distributed-ledger-based foundation for self-sovereign identity.

**rust-libindy-wrapper** is a library for assisting developers using LibIndy API.   

**rust-libindy-wrapper** does not include LibIndy.  This will need to be built separately.  See [IndySDK github](https://github.com/hyperledger/indy-sdk)
