Great idea, a TLS library vibecoded by AI in a day.

Please let us know when you generate one, so that we can stay away from it.

Taken at face value your comment is so unbelievably stupid that I have to assume it was joke that failed to land.

Yeah, you're right, internet security infrastructure is exactly the place where you want random vibecode from closed-source black-box code generators. /s

Embedded devices aren't known for security anyway. And the tls library can be written in rust for better memory safety.

If you want a TLS library written in Rust there's already rustls, no need to reinvent the wheel.

Unfortunately it's not entirely clear if rustls can compete in the embedded space where Mbed TLS is most popular?

As a rustls maintainer, we'd love to get feedback about this and/or work with organizations that want to sponsor getting rustls to the point that it could!
