Rust Merkle Tree Library with Configurable Storage and Hash Functions
By
bibiver
Pure flour-power. Hearty enough to carry you through lunch.
Summary
A Rust implementation of Merkle trees with configurable storage backends and hash functions. The library supports fixed depth and incremental operations, optimized for fast proof generation. It allows customization of storage (memory, file, database), hash functions (Keccak256, SHA256), and tree depth, with feature flags to avoid importing unnecessary dependencies.
